    what does it mean if your engine doesn't start but it just makes a like wizzing sound. sounds as if the starter isnt gripping anything and just spinning making a sound I'd imagine it would make. Should I just get a new engine..

    Starter motor isnt it.... Im letting it cool down, was cranking it for quite a while, my fuelling is f'ed on it. Took inj wires from 3+4 off whilst running and no change of tune, where as if 1 is taking off, it basically stalls. What could cause this as it isnt one bank, it's one wire from both banks :S Ive got spark, but it's like no fuel is getting into the cylinder, I have fuel coming out of the injectors!

    It means a spark issue then. If you are removing fuel on those cylinders it means nothing was firing in the first place.

    I'm going to test the inj wires tomorrow to see if ms is giving the injectors a signal, but before that, im going to take the fuel rail off again and check to see if it's squirting fuel out of all injectors. If it does at cranking, it will once the engine 's running obviously wouldnt it? Checked for spark and get spark, could the spark be too weak on the two cylinders?
