Pic, before you buy expensive parts, ask a BMW dealer or a shop with a proper diagnosis tool to run a diagnosis. Especially in Australia the prices are very high for parts. Many people therefore buy from the U.S. such as (I buy from there) www.autohausaz.com
or BMA
Is your drive way on a hill or something? Refill more fuel. Might be not enough as the bottom of the fuel tank is not even. Check the fuel coming from the fuel hose in the engine room. Might be a long time stored car and fuel could be mixed with condensated water in the tank. Water is heavier and sinks to the bottom of the tank.

Back again, Well weeks of trying and still no go. Fuel problem has been resolved with new fuel pump and I have fitted a inline EFI feul pressure gauge to keep a eye on things. Running 51 PSI while cranking so no problem there. I now have new crank sensor, new starter motor, another ECU and still she will not fire up. Cam sensor and temp sensor all test ok in line with the Bently manual specs. Tested the ignition and thats OK with voltage in and voltage out. ECU earth is good as well. It now winds over perfect but would seem that the ECU is not coming in to play. So at this time the car is 99% perfect with all electrics working just no spark or injectors. Tested voltage at the injectors and coil packs, power there. Any advice on where to go from here??
