Just joined, gret setup guys been watching now for some time only just got round to registering. any way just finshed my first xe conversion into corsa and everything was running good all lights and sensors working and drove great, i removed air flow meter to fit indution kit and when i replaced it it was like a bag of shit, didnt run at all and had really tight sqeeling noise, changed new air meter and have no spark now, checked all relative spark parts and there all ok, i have another donor engine so bits were swapped. its done 77000 miles, any info guys, appreciated.

if its not getting spark check earths and coil. also check switched live and positive loom connections.
check that you never loosened the ecotec pipe and letting in air, that will cause ur car to run like a bag of spanners.

sorry think got wires mixed up, i tried new stuff from donor engine cos the old stuff want working, all earths are ok, what is switched live ? its funny because after turning car over it fires slightly for a second then gives up again, then a massive back fire as if the car has blown up.!!
any ideas?

check the crank sesnor and/or the wire that goes to it. it connects to the loom near the grommit that goes into the bulk head. if this isnt plugged in it wont spark at all so wont run. the engine will still run without an airflow meter plugged it as far as i remember
