I've checked the timing. Any suggestions? I'm sure I'm missing something. I'm just not sure what?
Hi ! , I had the same problem when I did my BHG . The answer was found underneath the inlet manifold . I had forgotten to reconnect all the earth ( ground ) leads to the manifold . once connected she burst into life.
