   It was a bad earth at the point behind the battery. If anyone finds that there coil pack wont fire the best way to test to see if its and earth problem, is to use a jump lead connect it to the lifting hook on the engine and cpnnect the other end of the jump lead to the negative pole on the battery and then to start the car.
