Ok, so undid the union to the fuel distributor and it p*ssed out, and covered me... so there's some fuel getting there at least.

However, after the pressure died down to a dribble, I switched the ignition on.... but I don't think it sprayed out again.... hard to tell as I was in the car turning the key though.

I took no.1 injector out and cranked it over and couldn't see anything coming out of it... but then I was in the car peering under the bonnet and it was chucking it down with rain.

Have disconnected the air pipe to the airfilter and that made no difference. Is the aux. air valve in the air filter box anyway?


Anyone got any things I can try? The car's got a quarter tank of fuel so I don't think it's low.

It did start up for a second, and I managed to start to rev it with a light throttle, but just got a loud pop/bang from the engine bay and a bit of smoke!! Like a backfire, but through inlet not exhaust.

Please, any ideas??
