24v Turns over will not fire

Hi Ladies & Gents,
My 24v Estate has now decided not to start, the engine will turn over but not fire. I've checked the pump reset switch in the boot area, all relevent fuses 16, 17, 31,34,37 and 41 or 42 all ok. Need to charge battery now as have flattened it, so thouht i'd ask for some help from members with any similar experiences.
Regards Hopper

Why not?
If theres no petrol getting through it wont start
so it could be an empty tank, fuel pump, blocked pipe, fuel pressure regulator, injectors etc

OK..fair point. I must admit, many years ago my wife phoned me to say she couldn't open her car. She had gone out shopping (Volvo 940 estate) and come back to find the key would not open the door.
I drove 5 miles to help her, and it would have worked OK if she had tried to open her own car

hopper.
Can you or someone else hear the fuel pump when the key is turned on,it only lasts about a second each time you switch on,then runs after startup.In case you are unaware,the pump relay is green and violet and is in the aux box near the battery.If you pull it out and push it in with the key on,it should click.
GOZZ.
