Yeah thanks for that m8, you were the second person to suggest that, unfortunately it did not work. I don't actually have the ford ignition switch on my car, because my ignition runs through a relay, and I have a push button start. But I did something else to bypass the ignition start, I turned on the ignition to what would be position 2 and connected 12v to the starter solonoid and she still wont start! When the ignition is on the car will push start but something is happening when the starter motor is turning over. Also what happened at one point today whilst not touching anything but with the ignition on, every few seconds the fuel pump kept energising.
Still puzzled!
