Hi Guys, I attempted to post a reply earlier, but as I'm at work I got called away and ended up being timed out.
Thanks to all for the responses. Jim, The suggestion of the fuel lines being crossed sounds a great possibility, I should have mentioned in the first post the pistons are not just damp with fuel they are positively swimming in the stuff, when I shine a torch down the bores I can see the torch reflected in the fuel lake. Hamish, Thanks for the word of caution about swapping bits, I will check out all other avenues before I end up with two dead cars on the driveway. Gary, Thanks for the location info. The flashing Led is that with the ignition on but not turned to start, the answer to that question maybe clear when I get home. I will try and check out the fuel lines tonight but:- a: the car is on the drive and not in a cosy garage. b: I may only be allowed a small amount of time tonight as we are supposed to be going to the pics. Thank you all once again and I will feedback results as I have them.
