No, I've had a mate come look at it.. He's believes it is getting fuel to the engine. I never actually got around to checking the fuel flow at the engine end myself, which was also recommended. Given up for another week or so. Will look at again soon.

Couldn't find a fuel rail so I ripped out the back seat to have a listen for the fuel pump.. No noise? And the silastic seal had already been cracked? Top plate is covered in a thick layer of bulldust. Haven't ventured any further yet.

OK. If I can't solve the problem with simple methods, I may have to tow it to holden, get them to check it out. Am really hoping it is something simple, save myself $2000 + in repairs if possible. The car will only sell for around 6-8k. But,.. It is what it is. I've used under experienced...
