245 turbo run fine on a FULL TANK OF GAS but not at 1/2 full???? 200

Hello,
Great to hear another turbo is alive. Hopefully soon it will be well. It is probably the intank fuel pump. Sometimes the pump is actually good but the small hose that connects it to the output pipe decays and the gas gets pumped
back into the tank. If you listen at the fuel filler with the cap off you
can hear the pump if it's runnning. On my friends turbo you could hear the pump running but you could also hear the fuel splashing back into the tank because that little hose was bad. We replaced the little hose and the car is fine.
Hope this helps you.
