At last iv got it to run, but only on 2 cylinders. The problem looks like it's a faulty fuel pressure regulator and a crap pressure gauge! It was reading 50psi but when I tapped it, dropped to 35psi, cranked up the pressure and it fired and plugs now getting wet all the time. Strange thing is it run fine before on this pressure?
Anyway the next problem! The msd coilpack has a different firing order to standard so that was a problem too, iv tried all different combinations but it will only run poorly on 2 cylinders next I'm going to try new plugs again.
