Car model: AE86

Engine type: Stock BT 20v. Stock dizzy, ecu.

Problem: Fucken thing won't go. Before Christmas drove 2thou odd kms from QLD to SA over three days, arrived, drove it around for a couple of days and then put it up on blocks to replaced worn ball joints on steering rack. Went to start it up and ..... nothing.
Have checked all the plugs and it's got spark on all four. Cleaned and got all the corrosion out of the dizzy. Looked down the throttle bodies and the injectors are all squirting.
Help. Pretty please. This is the first time I've had any trouble with it since rebuilding it 20k ago.

Got a tow from the old man today down to the mechanic to get him to have a look at it and on the way I kicked it in 2nd and it started...... but at idle it hunts between 2500rpm and 1500rpm. Any ideas as to what is wrong?

check for air leaks/map sensor line dropped off/idle speed control plumbing probs. Only real reason for it to "hunt" (which is actually the ECU cutting fuel because revs > 2500 && tps =0) is from too much air in engine, which hopefully is also causing the starting issues :)
