Thanked 371 Times in 275 PostsSounds to me like it's not timed up properly, even 1 tooth out can be a massive difference in injection timing. I would move it one tooth back first then try one forward, then go 2 back ect ect. Eventually it should fire then you can plug it in a dynamically check the timing.

Thanked 371 Times in 275 PostsNice one, the marks on the pump are crap, it's common practice to set it to them then advance it 1 tooth. Usually gets you pretty close.
Hell of a bargain for 200 quid!854 T5 - The new project.
