Bugger. Any clues? Could it be dodgy temp sensor telling ecu that its colder than it is, and therefore putting far too much fuel in? | |

Definately fuel pump/injector problem then. Overfuelling by the sounds of it. | |

Forgot to mention, after trying to start for a while I took the plugs out, they were soaked in petrol. | |

My nova did have a charcol canister, but I ripped it out. It was in the passenger front wheel arch. | |

on the nova yes. The fuel filter on the corsa hatchbacks is next to the tank. Does your nova have a charcoal canister? | |

No its not, you miss read rear wheel for front wheel, and drivers side for passenger side :) | |

the fuel pump is situated in the tank itself. Get a mate to listen around the fuel tank whilst turning over, a distinct whirring noise should occur. If not, its knackered. Did you get code 28, 29 or 32? One could be a faulty contact or low voltage meaning its had it. Check the fuse and relay before taking the pump out, and remember that you should empty the tank to start with. | |

The pump is under the rear seat. If you stick your head by it you should hear it prime when you first turn the ignition on. | |

Corsa won't start when its cold or when it's been standing for a few days. Did the Diagnostic test (16 pin) came up with 1 fault which was 'Fuel pump' |
