hey all,
for some reason my saxo wont start since it came back from the bodyshop.
I cant figure it out, put a new battery on it, still nothing,
The engine turns over and tries to start, but just wont actually fire up.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
thanks :y:

try pressing the red fuel cut off button, top right of the engine, its a long shot but if nothing else is has worked some thing could have triggered it.

Is there any compression, maybe the cam belt has snaped so just the crankshaft is spinning.
