I take it the engine turns over and over without firing?

Can you smell fuel?

If you've had work done I'd start by checking all the connections - electrical and physical in the area.

I'm no expert but if its not firing and you can smell fuel then there can't be a spark.

Evsy.

Get someone to check if you have a power coming out of the amplifier(Multimeter will do the job ). Its a little Black rectangula shaped thing on the inner wing O/s by the suspension strut, just below the boost valve. Its about 3 in x 2 in and about half in thick. If theres no power at that, with ignituion turned on ,that will be your problem . Where u from ? I got a spare you can try if your close enough to me ,that is .
Hope that helps

steve
