I may have those hoses knocking about in the garage. I'll take a look when I get chance.

That small plastic hose on your bulkhead runs to the carbon canistor in the O/S wheel arch, It should be connected to the fuel tank vent but you said you don't have one

I have no space on the loom for it to plug - The 1.2 obviously had one though..?

So on the 3 way adapter on the bottom of the TB, There's the water pipe coming from the head into th eleft, then on the right it goes to the header talk - The one in the middle facing the block, goes to the rocker? - Surely i'd end up with water in the rocker though?

If you have them knocking around and want to sell that, it'd be brill mate - I'll check my wiring tomorrow too, and see if i've got the right wires connected - So the Thick Blue and red off the 5 pin long plug is unused, That sounds good then.. I think i'm most of the way there now...

I've gotta pop over the mrs's place now, but your help has been awesome!

Cheers buddy

No water gets into your oil. I double checked my plumbing and it goes there bud.
I'll let you know if I find those pipes.

Right, Been out and had a look...

Obviously she still turns over, I've cleaned the Dizzy cap out etc..

There seems to be no fuel going into the rail..

There's power to the fuel relay via the Thick blue/Red wire, and thats about all i can figure out - It just won't spark..

I've checked for a spark - One plug at a time - Only 4 seems to get a spark though - Is that right until it gets going? - Or am i looking at faulty Dizzy? - But then like i said, there's no fuel getting through, so i can't tell until there's fuel there whether there's another fault.. lol..

The wires you said about, i seem to have more / Different ones as originally posted up - I'm not sure that one of those isn't the problem..?

Grr i hate cars now! lol

Right - I've looked again - I can't seem to get fuel up there - I've taken the fuel lines off, and when i turn the ignition on, nothing comes out of them - On my saxo, if i disconnected them, It would piss out...

I have some different wires to what you have there though left over - From the Corsa loom All wires originally I have:

Blue - Connected
Blue / Red - Connected
Green - Connected
Brown / Blue - Connected
Green / Blue - Connected
Black (From long 5 Pin plug) - Connected to Ign Live in Bay

Thick Red / Blue (From long 5 pin plug) - Unconnected
Thin Black - Unconnected
Thin Red - Unconnected
Brown / White - Unconnected
Brown / Black - Unconnected
Thin Red / Blue x2 - Unconnected
Brown / Red - Unconnected
Thin Brown - Unconnected

And then Left Dangling from the XE Loom, I have:

Green / Black - To be left out..
Red / White - To be left out..
Brown / Yellow
Brown / Black
Thick Red / Blue

I'm really stuffed as to where to go now - That seems a lot from the corsa loom left over - Perhaps some of those should be connected to lives / earths, explaining my fuel problem?
