[Mk2] [NA] non starter please help

Post by mr2dave »

Took the engine out of my rev 1, and changed the gearbox, and stripped the engine down at the same time and rebuilt it.
Anyway got the engine back in but the had to go away for a few months before i got chance to start it up, so have just got back all motivated to get it going ( apart from the weather! )
Have got her turnning over but it just won't fire up, have check the HT leads and spark plugs, and there sparking, and its getting fuel, so am all abit stumped really! the only thing which i haven't fitted yet is the exhaust, could that be a problem, i can't really see why tho! any help??

Check the cam timing. It might be a tooth out. Also check the ignition timing.
