I'm assuming the engine is the 1.6 16V?
Has the immobiliser transponder and chip been fitted?

Riiiiight.... Car got plugged in these are faults
1. - Incorrect RPM signal - not present
2. Fuel pump relax voltage low - not present
3. - Immobilser wrong signal - present
He managed to "clear" faults 1 and 2 whether they will stay cleared when engine starts is unknown.
Fault 3 stayed on the computer - and showed the key was not coded to immobilser - bottom line meaning key/immob(cant remember which) has to be recoded.
Now - If you have original passcode (should come in log book) this part is easy, but his only ever met one person with this code and it was a new car.
My option is to go to vauxhall and say car was scrapped i got engine from it (and my mechanic said would right me a receipt for the engine) and they SHOULD be able to give me a code, once i have this code all can be reset, hopfully allowing car to run.
