Hi,
just went to go to work, but the car won't start!

We have a totally standard 1998 uk spec turbo 2000.
The engine turns over but won't start any ideas what's wrong with it?

It was working ok on Saturday as we drove down to Cornwall & back, but we did notice a slight burning smell coming from under the bonnet.

Thanks Graham

first thing i would check is can you here the fuel pump prime when you turn on the ignition if not its the pump/pump wiring or fuse.

i have a 1998 v5 uk spec subaru it started and and cut out no fuel geeting to engine,ive taken out the fuel pump and tested it as quite new and works fine checked all the wiring and still cant be heard anyone know what is possibly might be?

is there a relay somewhere as i dont know i can hear summat click when i activate the immobiliser but cant hear the pump i dont know where to look for the fuse or relay as not on the reverse of fusebox in car or under bonnet.

In your case, I think I'd be suspecting the immobiliser.

also might be cam or crankshaft sensor,check the wires to them and was the burning smell like a oily smell
