Urgent, Ignition System

[Guest andywillis89]

ok guys, just changed the head gasket on my 1991 XU 1.9Engine. All back in ok but when i turn the key it only cranks over, wont start. There is fuel to the injectors but they're not injecting, spark plugs bone dry. Also no oil pressure or warning light on dash. Please can someone state the left to right order for the coloured wires going into the ignition coil from the ignition pack. Any help at all is very very much appreciated. Thanks Andy

1.9 8v? Check the afm is plugged in properly as the car wont spark or fuel without it. To check oil pressure warning light just turn ignition on and earth the wires to the block to see which guage goes up. Is it the coil on the inlet manifold?

yes its the 1.9 8v, sorry but what is the afm? Yes the coil mounted to the inlet manifold.

Air Flow Meter.

 

You won't get much oil pressure just by cranking it over & once you stop it'll soon drop to zero.

A specific topic relating to ignition coil wiring has been started by me.

 

Apologies for any confusion.
