    Won't start

    Been out in Strat and parked on the drive, went to it an hour later to put it in the garage and it wouldn't start.
    Managed to get it started with a lot of cranking and pedal touching floor but was running really rough, stopped when throttle released.
    Won't start at all now

    Cam timing ok

    Any ideas before i start stripping bits off

    Cheers
    Alan

    Alan, Check all the ECU sensor connections. Worth reseating them too?

    Cheers Mel, it was fuel pressure.

    Some how the regulator got stuck so fuel was returning straight back to tank
    Put a pair of pliers on the fuel return pipe to reduce flow back to tank to get it started then removed pliers.
    Starts up as normal now
