Ive got a cold starting problem. It cranks over then dies and it takes about 5 mins to get it started and its getting worse. Once its warm you wouldnt know it had a problem, starts first time. Took it to the garage no fault electrically so they reckon there is an air leak in the system. Had all the plastic fuel pipes changed. Its still the same. Now theyve said there is a leak under the fuel pump. Could this cause it not to start in the mornings? Any help would be appreciated.

Went to the garage today the fuel was leaking from the side of the pump where the bolts are. The garage said they would try to change the seal inside the pump otherwise id have to buy a new pump. Id told him to tighten the bolts up on the pump as it wasnt leaking before i put it in the garage. They said it had been leaking for ages. Any suggestions?
