whats the best way to find out if the fuel supply is good

the fuel lines only go on one way an the pipes arent likely to have got nipped any where

there is also a strong smell of petrol when i keep trying to turn it over

Alrite mate i had the exact same of thing when i did my conversion .... when u fire it up .. check ur engine management light ... if it flashes constant .. then its ur immob

Was it a 1.2 before mate ? If so, the key u used to start ur car is needed aswell as the new key with the chip ... u need the dangle the new key in the pickup .. and start it with ur 1.2 key ...
