they have kept the original ecu, chip, key etc haven't they?
You don't have an alarm / immobiliser that the could have unplugged and not noticed? i did the head gasket on my sisters corsa once, forgot about unplugging alarm sounder and it cut the fuel

Surely the garage have tried the crank sensor? Do they have the old engine there to swap sensors over etc?
Oh and can you also give me the name of the garage so i'm reminded not to ever use them.
