Talking Starter fluid

First thing you need to do is take off the MAF sensor a little bit of starter fluid down in the intake. If it starts you have a problem with the gas system, if it doesn't then you have a problem with the electrical system. From there we can help you narrow it down more...

More then likely an electrical problem, seeing as you were playing around with the fuses. But, you never know with these cars.

Is the engine turning over but just not firing? - check the fuel cutoff switch hasnt popped out

In the UK the emergency fuel shut off is located in the driver foot well on the right hand side in a cut out in the plastic trim. In Left Hand Drive cars it can be found in the passenger bay foot well.

On top of this there is a rubber coated switch which you can press. If the shut off has activated you will hear and feel a small click when this is pressed.
