A Melter or fallen-off CPS does that... The pump primes, but without a 'revolution' seignal, the injectors won't fire..

HTH's..

can you check for a spark on EECIV or does it use individual coils per cyl?

It does use coil packs, but you can still check for a spark- I'll do that later, I don't think my missus will be too impressed with checking the spark!
I'll get her to do the fuses though.
STU can you use an ECU with a COSY tare code, on a car with a ANTI ECU if so will it start as I could swap ECU's to see if I have frazzled another one
