If it's the 2.8 MFi in his pics then it will not have a choke..
TBH... I hate K-Jet. I spent 3 hrs trying to revive my m8's MK2 golf 16V after a 6 month layup!! Does the 2.8 have the cold start valve, that can be rigged to spray a little fuel in if the main injectors are not firing.. Other than that and lifting the air plate to stimulate fuel preasure I don't remember much about the 2.8 MFi set up. ask on www.xrstyle.co.uk/forums TT

Yes, it does have a cold start valve, how can this be rigged to spray fuel? It sounds like most of my problems are fuel related? That's all the bits I replaced, so have a good few tips to try again on Thursday. Cheers Guys

little tip buy a can of easy start. take off the air filter and spray it in the inlet as you try and start it. if its just cold then that should get you going. my knowledge of the ford v6 lumps is vague at best. the best way to approach it is you know it worked fine before so it should mechanically be ok. chances are its something stupid stopping it from going.
check all the sensors to make sure nothing has been moved check the ht leads are on the correct way round and you dizzy isnt damp. then check you have spark. if you have fuel and its not firing i would expect the plugs to be wet with petrol when you take them out. if you have got spark plugs that are sparking but are damp with fuel and it wont go then it could be timing. if you have no fuel go over the fuel system. remember you only need fuel spark and air so go through each, one by one.

Cold start is just a ver crude injector, shoudl have two wires one being earht other +12v...
I can't remember if it's switched on the posetive or negative. But anyway. Get it to squirt some fuel by electrifying it manualy and somone turning over the engine. IF it does not fire then... Check the firing order.. check the dizzy is not 180 degrees out ( if it's been removed ) as this is a common one on the V6 . TT
