    Help please 1992 wont start

    Hi I have a 1992 3b s2 which I bought written off a week ago. when I bought the car it had been stood for some years the engine turned over but did not start I thought it was the immobiliser.. As usual not that easy after taking it to a good local auto electrician he had a quick look and said the immobiliser had already been disconected He had another quick look and there is no power going to the fuel pump. So in summary the engine turns over and sounds like it should start the immobiliser has been deactivated but the fuel pump is still not getting power. as it was written off would it have an inertia switch or fuel cut off? and if so where? I would really appreciate any help or info. Many Thanks

    Are you sure the feed to the fuel pump has not been damaged when the immobiliser was removed?
    How good are you with electrics? I'd start by tracing the wires from the fuel pump back to the pump relay and see if that is getting any power.

      Do the basics as well check fuse 27 and the main ecu fuse , as if any of these are blown the car will not start
