Hi all,
I own a 95 TI.
used to run on gas but been changed back to straight petrol, been having the usual efi problems like running rough, poor economy and crappy idle.
then started over fueling in a big way and fowling plugs until it just stopped altogether and now wont start.
anyone have any idea where to start the fault finding?

Welcome to the forum. It would probably be better to post a new thread as a lot of members don't read the intros.

It is possible that the rubber components of the injectors are dried out, due to long periods of not being used. This would only be the case if it didn't have a system that made it start on petrol and switch to gas automatically. Or the owner didn't run it on petrol regularly.
