but what has that got to do with the car not starting and the brakes on?

obviously something you disconnected you then didn't reconnect check and double check btw it's rocker cover, there's no rockets under that piece of tin

ok ill get back to you after i have a check. ---------- Post added 08-10-12 at 15:19 ---------- i had a look mate and i found a loose connetion to the dizzy and its all going Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
