Please stick to the basics first.
Don't start ripping fuel systems apart until you absolutely have to!  

Process of simple elimination. :thumbs:

That's what it's doing, it sounds like it has no fuel the way it wants to start but doesn't

Well one thing for sure it's not the brakes!  :lol:

Back to basics, fuel starvation/bad spark, air  etc, etc…
The video is extremely short, however wait till some of our Pro Members on the subject see this post and can walk you through!  :thumbs:

Your problem is not a new one but it takes the right approach to get to the cause.  ;)

Still no joy with the car, checked quite a lot of things today and still the same turns over and cuts out, think it's just best to get rid and give it someone who actually knows what there doing

Nopes not yet that's the least of my worries making sure it's clean, with the dash being off when I bought it I'm thinking it could be something to do with the electrics, I'm not clued up on these so I have no idea
