can anyone help??

did you check all fuses?

If you've got no spark I'd work backwards from the plugs to the battery/alternator.

Is the plug wet or dry?

If it's wet it's probably an ignition problem. If it's dry it's probably something affecting fuel supply/injection. Has the car actually got fuel in the tank? You wouldn't be the first ...

When you turn the key can you hear the pump running.If not check fuel pump relay. If you can hear the pump then I suspect the imobiliser,has the battery been flat recently? You can reset by disconnecting the battery leads and then re connecting.Simon.

Id check the Distributor and coil and the ignition amplifier. I had a problem with my Griif and even though there was a weak spark it wouldnt fire up very easily, turned out to be the ignition Amplifier. The other thing it could be is if the immobilisor isnt turning off, then you get no pump priming and the ignition is disabled as well.

When this happened to me t'was the coil fuse

check the fuses and they are all in tact, the plugs are wet and the fuel pump sounds like its working. Going to give Leven tvr a buzz and see if they can help me out, although any more ideas are appreciated. thanks Dan

Had this on my Sag. The fuel pump was faulty.

My T350 did this last year,turned out to be faulty crank sensor (Ford part,£30).
