My '02 fiesta has been in the garage for a week or so, I have started it every other day but it has struggled and now it will not start at all. It was jump started 3 days ago and the engine sounds fine. I have attached a new battery but it has not solved the problem. When I turn the key and hold it the car makes a loud fast clicking noise (when I dont put the accelerator down) and makes a slow clogging revving sound when I try to get some fuel through. Would really appreciate any help you can give. Thanks
