I know it sounds basic but it caught me out because my battery is in the boot, but have you got the main earth from the block properly installed. _________________ Ken McCarthy - 16V Sprint |

I had power to everything too, but it was earthing back through the headlight wires and there wasn't enough to fire the engine.
Good luck _________________ Ken McCarthy - 16V Sprint |
