First start since my engine swap!

Ah ok I see what you're saying, so pull out the FPR itself and cover the hole it came out of with a rag or something and if the rag gets petrol on it then there's fuel pumping up to the injectors? And by flicking the key you mean try starting it and let it try kick over then check where the FPR was? Does the fuel pump from the tank, through that black filter/canister between the coolant reservoir and wiper fluid reservoir then into the injectors?

Yes, fuel from the tank only goes through pipes to the rail, then the FPR controls the pressure, hence the name. Anything not injected returns through the other line back to the tank.

The black box is the fuel evap canister.

A tiny flick of the key should be plenty to see fuel. Just don't break the FPR.

Pulled off the fuel regulator and there's definitely fuel in there.
It starts for up to about 3 seconds then cuts out. Any chance there's a way of the immobiliser needing to be reset or anything to register the new engine?

If you are using the same key, ECU and instruments, no.

This is why it's so important to have access to VCDS. A scan would take you to the problem.

Didn't think that'd be the case, wouldn't even know who to ask that would have the scanning tools

thankyou very much for your help gav

Here she is, needs a bit of a tidy up but it's on the way. For now saving for some treats from ECS for some coilovers and tie rods to begin with then find some new wide deep dishes more than likely with some low profile tyres

Also does anyone know a nice and easy way to remove stickers/sticky residue from stickers off windows without scratching?
