Ah, so the engine would have been sparking, but no fuel there to ignite. You wouldnt have heard the fuel pump priming when you turned the key either.

Hi, I have the same problem as patullose, no spark, have changed the coil pack and crank sensor. Checked the relays, tested sockets with a peice of wire, a strange thing happened. The ignition relay socket with the test wire in it, made the non working blower come on, but I couldn't try to turn over the car. Put the relay back in, the blower stopped working again, but I could try to start the car. The test wire in the blower relay socket, did nothing at all. Any help on this would be appreciated, thanks. Julie.
