What year? A1 or A2

I doubt, if it runs, that the pump is at fault.

It's more likely sucking air at one of the several / many joints in the fuel
supply line.

And if that were not enough, there are one, possibly 2 stupid little cheap
plasticcheck valves that fail silently and permit lines to drain back while
sitting.

Want the full monty? will take quite a while for me to type at the moment,
one hand doesnt work too well yet
