Weird. Wife said there was a strange clicking noise when she opened the door and then car wouldnt start.
I had a look and fuel gauge registered none and light was flashing, so I assumed the silly cow had run out of petrol. Put 5 litres in but its still the same. Engine turning over fine.
Is there a sensor or something thats screwed that is telling the engine theres no petrol?

Just a guess here until someone more knowledgeable comes along, but if the tank had been emptied completely I think it would take more than 5 litres to register plus now you may have all sorts of gunk from the bottom of the tank interfering with the car starting£2 Savers Club 2011 (putting towards a deposit

Either ignition is faulty, or fuel isn't reaching the engine."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0
