Misfire

Yup, I'd say cheapo-crapo cam sensor, fact it ran fine for a while suggests this as well. Seen time again cheap non-genuine sensors cause this, with GM sourced ones being far more reliable.

Normally around £70-80 for it.

The Crankshaft sensor was a Lucas one. The problem is do I spend £80 on a Vauxhall sensor with no guarantee that's the problem.

The car is driving me mad now. Feel like beating it with a tree branch like John Cleese in Faulty Towers.

Now our transit wont start.

With a problem like this, just chucking bits at the car has no guarantee of success. Methodical section by section, system by system is the only way. I assume all the things in my last post have been checked and are all fine. If so, that's the end of my knowledge and I hand it over to others who know more.

If not, I'd be damned if I scrapped a car for the sake of a spread or corroded connector block or a cracked filter housing lid.

is there any way you can monitor fuel line pressure whilst driving it to see if it drops when it goes gaga

 Have you tried fuel filter.
Not read complete thread so sorry if it has been done
