Do the pedal trick test - similar issues on my 2002 2.6 - turns over but doesn't fire - cuts out when up to operating temp... pedal trick showed crank sensor fault.

Bought the sensor and having it fitted on Saturday (along with a few other bits Daz is sorting out... ) :y

Hope it is that as car hasn't really been driven in the month since it's been bought....
