Hello Chas,

How much fuel is in the tank? The 911 gauge is not very accurate at a low level, and many have been fool by this. If you don't know and the gauge is below 1/4, put some fuel in the tank before rebuilding the engine. If you have good spark, focus on fuel. On your car, the safety circuits, rev limiter, alarm, air flow switch, all shut of the fuel pump circuit, not the ignition. I would put fuel in the tank, remove the air filter, turn on the key, manually push up the air flow sensor for 3-4 seconds. You should hear the fuel pump come on and the injectors buzz. If you ran out of fuel, this will purge the air, and this will test the air flow switch. If you don't hear the pump run, jumper the fuel pump again and try to start the car.
