    Angry 4x4 cosworth

    Park up my cossy for 6 months started it every two days to keep it running
    and all was well and all of a sudden it would not start
    so being and old school boy I changed the plugs,leads,rotar arm,dizzy cap
    and phase sensor and got a group a coil and still didn't start so looked on the net
    because I don't have a clue about cossys my last car was a s1 rs turbo but found out
    that it might be coolant sensor so replaced that and air temp sensor still won't start
    found out about crank sensor so replaced that and it started on the button well happy but all
    of a sudden it died well pissed off.now it will start every 4 goes on the key but will only tic over
    for about 45 secs and it won't let you rev it up just cuts out.
    Realy need help just want to drive again

    Checked CPs and gap was fine at 1mm then changed fuel filter still car won't start so I thought I will unconect one sensor at a time and try to start and fist one was idle control valve and it started first time but cuts out after about a minute and still won't rev up so if I start it up again without idle control valve connected it starts but as soon as u plug sensor back in it cuts out
    please some one help me
