Okies, i've treated myself to an xe nova and well it was all going happily until i decided to strip it.

its now been fully stripped (interior) and the bugger wont start, I've checked all the usual suspects and it's getting fuel (pressure in the rail) and all 4 plugs are getting spark.

The engine is from an astra GSI with dispak, I've had a quick look at the crank sensor and it appears to be fine. Fuel pump relay is clicking, ecu light is comming on at the dash side and its turning over but it will not fire.

Any ideas????

It's not too bad, Just needs a new wiring loom, bonnet blah blah blah. Going to have a proper look tomorrow and see what's needed.
