stants Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Could be cam sensor or crank sensor, but these would throw up a cel at least, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyc Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Start with the basics, fuel, spark and air. Make sure there's enough fuel in the car (sounds stupid I know). Check that you have a charge in the Battery, and pressure at the fuel rail and work from there really.

Ian123 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 Ok I'll have a look Tomorrow.... What best way to test spark etc and is there a way for testing to see if timing is correct?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I'd start with putting the back seats down and turning the key to the acc switch,that way you'll be able to hear the pump prime, (or not ) As for spark there are various diy testing methods on YouTube, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian123 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Ive removed the pipe leaving the fuel filter n put the pipe into a bottle n cranked the engine to see if I had fuel.. I do have fuel lots of it but still no running scooby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
