been trying to get this cossie started all weekend with no luck,it just turns over and fires every so often,it seems to be flooding all the time as the plugs get so wet,its about 2 bar of pressure while cranking,changed the plugs,dizzy,leads,phase sensor,crank sensor,done the timing a million times,its running stage 3 on greens,im sure its a fueling problem,the car had been playing up for a couple of days then it spluttered to a stand still,changed the sensor at the back of the head also,but just the same,any ideas peeps,pretty desperate now!!!oh and checked the sparking thats fine to and changed the ignition amp

Hi mate, i had similar prob on mine but it started only when cold and died when warm and would not start till cold again.
AS you i changed all sensors and double checked it all. Everyone said ECT sensor and this an that.
But mine was the fuel pump not giving enough pressure, know your thinking why are plugs getting wet and it stinking of fuel, well mine was same as the petrol just poured in thro the larger greens and not spray as it should.
Try testing ya fuel pressure with a gauge or another check is to pull off the return pipe from the regulator and see if anything comes back as mine didnt.
Have you also checked connections accross the bulkhead as these also can cause probs. Good luck

Don't keep cranking, not good for the plugs, try a new set of plugs first as these may well not be any good now having been soaked.
They can spark outside the chamber but not necessarily spark inside where pressure is higher.
I would be tempted to change the FUEL filter, then just temporarily run a seperate 12v supply to the pump.
Do the wiggle test as it is cracking on the phase sensor CONNECTOR, the pins become loose in here.
Then I would go back and check all the basics especially phase sensor alignment.

i had the same problem on mine only last week, is your engine light on or come on when it first started to mess up?? mine turned out to be the map sensor.
