Some good news at last.
Following the advise on clarks, I finally got round to fitting the new fuel pressure regulator. Now the car starts sweetly from cold, has no idling problems, and the fuel pump no longer screams in protest. It's actually pleasant to start and drive again!
The instructions on clarks were not particularly verbose, but enough to work out what to do. It was fiddly but definitely easy for someone with limited experience (like me) to do. Now if only the parts would arrive from Porkaparts so I could drive it again. The car is back at the garage this week though to have the wings done, I'll post the results.
