HI,
After putting my engine back in the car last night it will no longer start - it turns over perfectly but just won't start. There is defo fuel from the pump as you can hear and feel the fuel in the lines. I'm at a bit of a loss as to why it won't start - anyone got any ideas as to what could cause this?
I know its vague but it's pretty much all I know - any suggestions would be well appreciated.
Dave

3 things required to start:
Fuel, compression, spark.
Take out a spark plug, if it's wet, you have no spark, or a very weak one, if it's dry, chances are you have no fuel (reaching the cylinder).
If you rebuilt the engine, or at least know you have sensible compression, you should start looking at the above.
