	Check your battery or replace with a known good one then try, check coil pack is getting 12v supply. :thumbs:

	Have you removed plugs and have a look to see if they are ok? Could be a lot of things...best to get someone you know with a corsa to pop round and swap things round until you find the fault :thumbs:

	right had a duff battery yesterday got it changedd under warranty, so thats one problem fixed! Fuel rail is pressurising, as fuel shoots out when pressing the valve on the end! turning over but Just no spark....what could this be? just had to top up the coolant bottle as it was low, could this suggest headgasket? anyway to test this? theres no mayo under oil cap or no substance in the cooler bottle!

	no fuel pressure - check fuel pump relay check feed to fuel pump

	well just went out and tested it, cranked the car over and pressed in the valve on the end of the fuel rail, a small amount of fuel trickled out but wasnt pressurised :( used jump leads on the battery to crank it over as battery seems to keep dying, and after cranking it a little bit the battery still died even with jump leads on?

	just poppin out to check now
Warren G	posted on 11th Oct 09 at 19:31
	yes, release all the pressure, crank over, and see if theres pressure again
eastend	posted on 11th Oct 09 at 19:28
	i will go and check, thats just by opening valve on end of fuel rail slightly isnt it?
Warren G	posted on 11th Oct 09 at 19:16
	no it doesnt' do you have fuel pressure, if theres no fuel pressure and no spark, ecu isnt reading crank signal
