Right ladies & germs hit another fuck1n road block in the long running saga of recomissioning my Turbo :( Long story short she was running ok, but not starting sometimes, or doing a bit of kangaroo'ing then it'd clear, then one night while driving she stopped with what felt like the engine seizing it was so violent, fortunately I was on a side street so no problem but she then wouldn't start. So got my mate to give me a tow & gave her a bump start & sure enough she fired, so drove her back to her lair, stopped her & she wouldn't start again ffs. So we did a bit of tinkering & shes not giving any spark on turn over, were getting plenty of fuel & shes turning over fine, thought it maybe sensor related so got a new crank sensor but no joy, checked the EDIS module as he has a Fiesta & his runs using mine so we assume its ok, she has an old Clifford alarm but its linked in to the fuel pump too & it comes on once you switch the immobiliser off, along with the ignition, so were at a loss as to whats causing it, ECU maybe? Any thoughts greatly appreciated, before I use 5 litres of super unleaded to put her out of my misery :D
