There is another post i made with several links to good mfi guides.... I will find it in a bit was just feeling lazy lol
The fuel distributor lives on the metering unit, the large lump under the air filter. At the back right there is a black rectangular box with a 2pin white connector. When the car is hot unplug this and see if it will restart.
test 2
with the air filter off get some one to crank the car whilst you push down (lightly) on the big flap under the air filter. Do it progressively a mate is turning the motor over... You should only need to press it down 1 mm or 2 before it starts.
Is there a dump valve? if there is block it off.
Don't mess about with the other stuff before you have tried the above, as this will give the most useful info regards to a diagnosis.
