Default Cossie problem

Over the last couple of months i've been doing up my mates cossie that's been off the road for 6 years. I've just come to a point to start her up and she's running on one cylinder

Number 1 has a spark but not the others, and when winding over with the plugs out i only seem to be getting fuel from number one cylinder

Any ideas??

But what about the spark?

Seems strange to me that number one seems to be ok with fuel and spark, which makes me think crank sensor orphase sensor

sounds like it could be crank sensor, phase sensor, an ecu fault , dodgy connector or ignition module...

I use one of those diagnostic widgets, give you a fault code! worth a tenner i reckon

good luck
