check the fuel pump fuse in underdash fuse box ! also the corsa pump has a habit of jamming up .. lift up the back seat .. remove the black round plastic plug you see ... then you will see the pump pipes and wires waggle the wires and tap on the pump a few times .. if you have a voltmeter check you have power going to the pump when you turn ignition on and cranking !
