Ahhh okay so that tab has two wires coming off it? The wire above goes towards the boot and joins in with a load of other wiring? Is that correct.

When feeling it i can only find what feels like a spade connector terminal and thats the firewall side.

Thanks for all help! Its really really appreciated :D

Heres two pics of the wiring. The thick black one at the top is the one im guessing is my starter feed? That was the one smoking/i thought was an earth.

Re: Car wont start after 7 months sitting! :(

As above i heard a sort of whirring noise in the car but my dad said it was clicking.

Ive checked oil and topped it up so thats fine.
Ill remove the plugs and give that a go, see what happens.

Thanks
