Seriously had enough of this fucking vauxhall piece of shite! C20xes are officially the biggest pile of wank ever! Just tried new crank sensor and still no fucking different! So that's, new crank sensor,dizzy cap,rotor arm,king lead. Afm plugged in,afm unplugged.lambda plugged in,lambda unplugged. Got decent fuel and spark,No other options so would some kindly like to figure this out? Coz I can't and I'm about to set the piece of shit on fire! Jerry can at the ready!

Hmm does sound like your hitting something shitty here

Next lines of testing are :

Unplug coolant temp sensor and try starting

Compression test on the cylinders


How strong is the spark?

Tell me about it! And running out of patience,fast! Ok will try unplugging Cts. Will borrow a compression tester off my mate 2moro. What id say is certainly strong enough to ignite fuel! Lol

What psi should they read? Baring in mind it's a fresh engine with only 15 miles on it. Dunno if that'll make a difference of the rings aren't bedded in properly yet...

Either a bad earth or injectors full of crap and under fuelling. I pulled all the wiring out of the bay,swapped injectors just coz I had another set,put it all back in and hey presto! Started straight away!
