If you're getting noise from the injectors surely they are spraying then

Unlikely to be the fuel ECU as KE operates in limp home mode should something fail.

Yea as safechav sais, suerly their is fuel coming from injectors if they are making noise (like a horrible squeeling noise?)

did u have the injectors out the inlet to see if they were spraying fuel?

You said in your last post it starts and sounds like a scooby - i'd look at ignition side of things...

also, you say if u take oil cap off it smells of petrol...well sais to me its geting petrol but its not getting burnt!

Take plugs out, get someone to turn it over an check for a spark, give them a wire brush an stick em back in.
