Get it on diagnostics if you can, will give you an idea of where to start. It's probably cam/crank sync or weak battery if you can get it going with easy start, but won't know for sure without a bit of diagnostic work first. Check the link in my sig, fair bit of info in there.

Been hectic in work got it on ramp today gave tank sender a tap but still nothin i can hear it prime ok but wont fire up battery is good also no faults using my bosch diagnostic kit only got car donor part for my 306 hdi will end up sending to scrappy i think

Codes are only the most basic of info with these, better off having a look through the live data for anything that doesn't look right. What's the battery voltage? Is the immobiliser communicating with the ecu?

Clean up the fuel pressure regulator, my brothers car hasn't been starting for a few days, he'd been bump starting it and it'd then run fine. Cleaned the fpr and it fired up.

One i dint think was the fpr still aint been able to get chance on car again have another go then itll be off to scrappy with it i think

Where are you? Don't scrap it, seems pointless when it could be a very easy fix.

When you say starts with easy start does it keep running or as soon as the easy start is gone cuts out?
Have you got access to PP2000 or know someone that has it?
