wondering if anyone has any ideas. heater matrix was leaking it dripped onto the ecu shorted it out and injectors 2 and 4 were pulsing constantly filling the bores with fuel. i checked there was a spark, fuel obviously coming up, (checked 1 and 3 aswell) replaced ecu tried to start car but it will only wind over fast. thought chain had snapped but cams are turning so guessed it was o.k. anyone any ideas whats wrong or what could be wrong? thanks steven.

where do you get a flash code tester fo one of these old beasts and do you get a blink code diagnostic manual telling you what the fault is?

THE CAR IS RUNNING AGAIN:) it wasn't getting enough fuel into the bores so as i said sprayed some fuel into the bores then into the air filter while turning it over and she fired up. now it starts 1st turn of the key everytime, not bad for a engine thats been lying for 6 months.
