    do you mean it cranks for a while?
    or it dosnt crank?

    if it cranks for a while before it starts it could be the on way valve in the fuel pump, if you put a fuel pump in it should fix this problem,
    Stato on the inside, berlina on the out side,5ltr under the bonnet,stockies all round...........that thing has to be a sleeper

    can be the fuel pump relay, or fuse. If the fuel pump relay isnt working, then the car doesnt start till oil pressure comes up, as the oil pressure switch then supplies power to the fuel pump.....You can simply swap the fuel pump relay with a known working one, like the horn! and see if that makes a difference.
