Sorry bout that, zone joke... Anyways, you dont need the 325i fusebox, but need a bit more info first. Is the engine turning over at all?? If it is, is it just the spark missing??

It was a long time ago! Hi Rueb, have you got the crank sensor plugged in, if its lost spark thats a quick and easy check, can you let us know if you have a spark anywhere before the plugs. Is there a live to the coil ect.
