hello pepolei bought a 98 model 2.0gls estate today off the net whilst driving back home stopped at the services and on locking the door pulled the key in half,never thought anymore of it just pushed it together again,on returning to the car it refused to start,anyway recovery guy turned up and after 20mins came to the conclusion the fuel pump had gone,the car wanted to start after he sprayed easy start on it so i take it theres a spark there,my problem is should my key have the little chip in it because it hasnt and if i have lost it would this cut the fuel supply?no warning lights showing on dash and also no noise from fuel pump on turning the key!my new car is now parked 20miles from home and dont want to waste money on a fuel pump if its the imobiliser causing the problem.thanks in advance guys
