Anyone recommend a good supra tuner?About 6 monthes ago i had the cams & pulleys changed by owen development near oxford,collected the car only to be told it needed to be rolling roaded & tuned ,as theres was broken,a week later i broke down,got it low loaded back to owens were they replaced the camshaft sensor & oppologised. I hardly drive the supe & now the winter is nearlly over i thought its time to get her out the garage & start driving her again.Charged the battery & nothing,engine turned over fine,spark plugs are fine,any ideas??? .real gutted as wanted to meet up tomorrow for the gaydon meet.

Did you disconnect the battery before charging it? Folks have blown the igniter pack by charging the battery while it was still connected.

What do you mean when you say "spark plugs are fine"? There's a spark at the plugs?

Just a basic one here, you checked all fuses? Including fuel pump fuse (im guessing there must be one)

If you havent checked the Fuses just check them anyway. Maybe an important one has blown.
