Just looking for some advice before I start swapping sensors/injectors ect. Car was driving perfect untill I stopped at the shop came back out and would just turn over but not start. Tried to bump it down a long hill and still nothing didn't think it was sparking right so swaped the dizzy and leads and new plugs still nothing getting fuel up to the filter but changed that as well Car will start if I spray easy start in the inlet and will then run and drive no bother but as soon as I cut the ignition and try to start again it will just turn over any help/ advice appreciated.
 
What's the car? Ecu diagnostics might provide some insight if you don't want to start stripping things yet.
 
Sorry I completely forgot about this post turned out to be a fuel filter was like sand that came out it. Haha

Holy ****! How'd that get in there? Everyone going to be buying fuel filters now lol
 
It's my own fault for not changing it the fuel tank rusted through so I had put a new one on and never changed the fuel filter Iv done 40k+ on that filter and I don't know when it was charged before I had the car .
to busy swapping bits on the motor and forgot about the basics haha think the brake and clutch fluid will get changed asap
 
Wow first time I've seen that. Glad I changed mine when I refurbed my fuel tank
 
Ye i got in the habit of doing my fuel filter with every service. Bit ocd but there not that expensive
 
Definitely do not over look the simple things that's all this was and the car was off the road for 3 weeks. Partly as I got a new car on the Monday and this chucked it on the Tuesday
