Keep on healing drewps and do as you are told by the medics, don't over do it.
That must have been a very satisfying dump.

put a wireless OBD on and can see 200 rpm on crank.
Taken sparks out and one was rusted inside the threads. must have a head gasket leak, but that shouldn't stop the other cylinders from firing though as they are fine.
Got fuel coming out the end of the fuel rail Schrader valve. Just need to check sparks but I need to do in stages so I can rest.
Might be a scrap job anyway as buying a new car, mrs only does 3 miles a day so electric is perfect

got it started by removing the sparks and putting easy start in there. I noticed the sparks were very weak so ordered a new coil pack and we'll see how that goes. The coil pack was only £20 as some of the packaging was missing.

Normally those coils packs just go down on one cylinder but there's always a first time.
