Default fuel pump relay

still having dramas with the car.... when the car gets upto temp the fuel pump relay clicks alot and the car runs lumpy on tick over and low speed driving...now iv changed the main relay brown and the fuel pump relay green so it cant be the relay... so what would make the pump relay click??

i had a code 45 pop up last week which is the pressure sensor for the bcs..is it possible that sensor isnt working as it should in turn the bcs isnt working correct and the ecu is trying to deal with it making the pump relay play up???

car is running rich stinks of fuel...

i seem to be chaseing the problem around...

Put a new earth on the relay or wire a temporary switch in to bypass the relay energising circuit.
Then see if problem persists.
