I'd personally walk away from it for about 15 minutes like I said to let things cool and the battery gets topped up. If you were to get into the engine management fault code section you'd see a 'noisy cranking signal' code, this is what puts up the engine check lamp.Quote:

ok ive finely got it going now it has a rough idle like it has 1 injector out ?? will this go when i hold the pedal down at say 1200 rpm it slowly brings the revs up itself after that
Best thing to do now is drive it. It'll be a bit smoky I reckon:(Quote:

after all the chat's we've had and taking into account this hard bleed issue, and speaking to JC, get where ever you taking it too to check the fuel pressure you may well have a dying fuel pump and or fuel regulator.Quote:

A fuel cooler, which i disconnected and moved out of the way, is bolted to the rear of said manifold. With the alt back on and temp bolts holding everything else together, i turned the key to purge air from the fuel lines but noticed there was no noise from the pump. Indeed it sounded very dead.
With info found at this site i located the fuel pump relay and by-passed it with a jump wire but still no noise.
There's a black widow storage system blocking access to the pump cover so off with the tow bar and out with the fuel tank. Tested the pump by connecting a battery to the wires i traced as the main feed .. and then ordered a new fuel pump.
I installed a new f/filter whilst i waited for parts. With so many fuel lines off, there was bound to be a system FULL of air.
After searching these hallowed pages, i followed this recommendation found and referred to here.
The new pump was noisy for ages but it did eventually quieten down, the only thing i forgot to do was hold the accelerator pedal to the floor. Nothing 1st hit but 2nd hit it started to splutter into life. 2 or 3 more attempts and the engine was running !!
The most beautiful eargasmic sound i have heard for a long time. After worrying about it since the original pump 1st failed 3 weeks back, i've only had a chance here and there to get back to this job but persistance has paid off and i'm a happy bloke.
Cheers, Danny.
