cabrioman 6 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 take the plugs out and see if they are wet ..... if they are let them dry and let some air into the engine to try and dry it out a bit and try again .... just have a double check make sure everything is plugged in and fitted correctly ....

michael5556 247 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 If you have moved the battery, have you connected all the earths back up properly? I did this and had to earth the starter to the chassis myself Link to post Share on other sites
baz8328 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 It's sparking ok so would the earth to starter stop it from starting Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 have you got the leads in the correct firing order ???? Link to post Share on other sites
baz8328 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Yes ! Link to post Share on other sites
michael5556 247 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 You sure you have spark then? If you have spark and fuel then it should start lol check your earths. Link to post Share on other sites
ashmk3 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Is it obd1 or 2 ? If it's 1 check maf is plugged in, isv. Throttle body plugged in? Just trying to think of all things inlet related. If its turning over then the starter must be working and if your sure there's spark then there getting power so I would say the battery move seems ok. Have you earthed the engine at all through the gearbox? Link to post Share on other sites
