engine won'tstart

[norrie499]

State of play .
Had the head off nad while deciding whether or not to get another head discovered that the crankshaft pulley had sheared the woodruff key.Checked the head and valves ,camshaft,every thing ok.Got another camshaft pulley and head gasket and replaced everything.Set timing spot on,now its turning normally but still will not start.I've had the injectors out and cleaned them and replaced seals and replaced them in the right order.Any ideas anybody.

There's always the possibility you've disturbed something while you've been working - cam sensor?

Or work from the basics - it's getting fuel? Can you hear the lift pump?

Have you tried firing it up on Sniff, (Easy start etc,) ?

Hi Lads
I've tried easy start but as soon as i let go of the ignition key it just stops .There's fuel at the filter and have bled the injectors one at a time .My mate has a obd 11machine and the only fault that comes up is TPA,Can anyone recommend anybody near Gateshead with the full diagnostics kit

[norrie499]

Sorry the fault is TPS

Throttle position sensor.......
Check the connections, linkage, moves freely, etc. Get one from a scrappy?

[norrie499]

Would the Throttle Position Sensor fault prevent the car from starting

You might of already tried it but i thought id mention just incase:

have you tried pressing the cut off switch on the suspension leg ?

[steve_earwig]

That'd be a shocker! If it has one it'll be on the suspension top near the abs.
