Thank all for your suggestions,
When I returned today, it started @first try - drove home without any issues...
SO:
@Mike:
Do you think it could *not* be the sensor or the wiring?
(I was just about to order a new sensor before I saw your post)
@Yorkshire:
Do you still (after Mike's input) think cam shaft sensor and/or wiring could be the culprit?
@trikey:
I saw a tut on this yesterday somewhere on the net - 4" tubes, not starting the engine (disconnect the cam shaft sensor connector, I think it was, to prevent the engine from starting), but just cranking it for about 10 secs.
However, I consulted an auto workshop today, they said that would not be sufficient - I should use bottles, *and* start the engine...
Do you have any thought on that?
Thanks again from a RoverLoving, but not AutoTech mind
