Guys,
my Calibra has just broken down on me. The engine rotates but will not start and none of the spark plugs are firing. The RAC bloke said it could be a sensor gone wonky cos it wasnt getting the signal to the management system.
Any ideas?????

p.s. just b4 it stalled on me the engine was very irractic - as though it kept getting flooded and wasnt really responding to the accelerator pedal....???

Cheers guys............
