Starting problem

[bluesaxo21]

Just had my clutch changed aswel as a service and now my vts will not start first time yet it turns over and is getting fuel. It sometimes starts for about a second and then cuts out again. It wasn't doing this before the clutch change and the crank position sensor is clean anyone have any ideas?

When did you fit the ecu?before or after the clutch change?I ask because if you`ve got a keypad immobiliser then you put your code in start the car & pull the plug out of the back of the immobiliser.If you don`t do it this way then you lock the ecu & it won`t start until you get it unlocked again.:drink:

Edit just seen it probs won`t have a keypad,however the ecu could still be locked.
