I will also check in the Autel for a read out of the throttle pedal potentiometers to make sure they are both operating and sending a correct signal to the DME.
I believe from my research that one signal should be approx double the value of the other? Is this correct?
Once I have done more trouble shooting I will get back to you.
Thank you so much for your time and advice - very much appreciated.
Paul.
On the potentometer signals I think you are correct.
You can use the search function here on the forum and find old threads.
type in E-gas in the search at the top of the page.
Should be some threads on how e-gas works.

If the car fires you should be able to get it running sooner or later.
Even if the E-gas is faulty the car should start although it would probably default to limp mode.

I would do a fuel pressure test at the fuel rail.
Your getting spark so it seems like a fuel issue.
If you need specs. and testing procedure try the search function.
or let me know and I will see what I can find in the service manual.
keep me posted I will try to help with diagnosis.
