Lol, ok sorry was a bit tired when i started the thread at 3am this morning, ok this is what is happening
i put the key in, go so start and the starter motor does the turning over thing it does but the engine wont start, ive been told it maybe the TDC Sensor and ive been told it maybe the starter motor not 'engaging'
many regards

Would say plugs, leads or TDC sensor, poibly coil pack?
Can you jump/bump start it?
As said before mate garage will be your best bet.

Better than yours. C*nt.
Get your mate to stand behind it, if the exhaust wobbles or open the bonnet and if the engine turns, then the motor's engaging and it's a spark or fuel problem.
Take one of the plug leads out, put another plug on and make sure that the plug grounds to the head, and again turn the engine over getting a mate to ensure it's sparking.
Put all the caps back on the plugs, and take one of the injectors out. Standing back!!! Turn it over briefly and check you get a mist.
If that's all working then god knows - it should be going bang!

how do i take out the injectors without removing the fuel rail?
Just take the rail off, the rail holds the injectors in place.
Only need to uplug the fuel line undo the bolt and the whole rail and injectors come off as one.
My car wouldn't start the other night, had to get the AA man out. My crank sensor (think it's the same thing as the TDC sensor other members are talking about? The one near the flywheel) was covered in dust and this stopped it working. Gave it a clean and my engine started first time instantly.
Superb.
