I'm having some amount of problems with my car at the moment. the fuel doesnt seem to be pressurising as their is no pressure in the fuel rail at just before ignition. the car turns over but their is no fuel to make her go. Is it possible that the fuel rail could be faulty though it does on occasions start and run but when turned off it wont go again. Im strongly considering putting it into a car electricians

Mine was only running on two injectors at first, but that was noticeable from the moment the key was turned.

You could have a faulty rail, could be injectors in need of a clean.
Check the pressure to see if you're getting enough fuel through.

the car does sometimes start on 3 cylinders then clears up very quickly. i turn the key to almost ignition to see if it is building up fuel pressure in the rail and it is not.

Get a replacement rail from a scrappy or ebay - there's always a few kicking around in people's garages, so you just need to make a nuisance of yourself.

is it throwing up the ecu light?

if so id check all the wiring loom above the injectors, ive had a few problems with this due to a cracked wire or dodgy connection somewhere.

the engine managment light is constantly on has been since the conversion i had thought this was due to my lambda sensor not being wired up as the wire is not present on the exhaust manifold
