when u turn the key to position 2, does the fuel pump run for a few seconds then stop...? (this should happen)
have you tried removing a plug and leaving it pluged into the ht lead and let it sit on the rocker cover and turn it over, do you get a spark when its turning over.?

Get it to someone who specialises in them, you are going around in circles..

Had a non starting problem on mine turned out to be Lambda sensor. the wiring was faulty. dissconected it and it started worth a try as it is a 2 second job.
I think you way forward if you want advice on here is to state everything you have tried and with what results you have found. ie
can you here fuel pump prime when you switch ignition on
have you got fuel at rail / have you got spark etc etc
The boys on this site know there stuff and will help you out but you need to state correct information to get anywhere. Goodluck getting it sorted it will be a great car when sorted
