The thing is that ive got a spark and after turning it over the plugs are soaked with fuel but it doesnt even try to fire
-
have you check the timing?? ie the cambelt hasent slip few teeth?
-
It was running but when it got hot it started running rough so i switched it off and now it wont start it has done this before but it has started when it has cooled down i think it could be a sensor but i dont know which it could be
-
Sound like it's over fuelling. On the front of the head there is a plastic water outlet with two sensors. The one you need to swap is the blue one.
-
Would this stop it from running
-
does your fuel pump prime for 3 seconds when you put the ignition on? it should. If it continues to run then the ecu or ignition moduel that sits ontop of the ecu is dodge.
happend to me 4 times now.
Have a few spare ignition moduels. if your local you can try it out
-
Yes it does all of this but just doesnt fire
-
is the earth strap going from chassis to gearbox ok? as it does sound like it has broke and killed the ecu! this is soooooooooooooooooo common on digifant!
-
It primes then stops and the earth strap is ok ive already had an ecu and ignition module to solve a diffrent problem

Blue Coolant Temp Sensor mate. it controls the fuelling and the car will run like a bag of sh!te when the autochoke shuts off. When they fail the car will overfuel to the point it cuts out.
PM me, I have a new sensor you can have for £5 (genuine VW one, not crappy pattern parts)
