Default Not firing
After a few running issues on the Classic, we checked all the coil packs, one had fallen apart, replaced that.

Checked all pipes, the solnoid was all plumbed in wrong. Sorted that all out.

But now the turns over fine, but wont fire? Any ideas..

Ah yes, great idea. I'll try that tomorrow. You only really notice how diffrent the engine bays are when you have them side by side.

I'd noticed Nick buying bits for a classic a few weeks back but assumed it was for a friend or something as I'd not seen a thread about another car.

Maybe I'll just go back to sleep!

lol..its not all hush, just a L reg Jap Import, to mess about with.

Checked the sensors today, took them out, wiped the crap off them. Started!! And with the solnoid plumbed in right, went like a rocket ship.

Parked up, wouldnt start again.

Stuck my head under the dash, and it sounds like theres a relay going nuts on ignition?

Mmm not sure, but have seen your symptom. As fuel pump.
See if JGM or Scott can throw any ideas in the pot

Check the ECU, open it up and see if it's chipped.
Sometimes if the chip or adaptor board is faulty or not seated right it can cause all sorts of clicky noises and dash lights go mad.
it could though be the ECU, but early ones are quite cheap and easily re-sellable on ebay.
I used to always have a few kicking around but don't anymore.
