Default HELP SC400 wont start

Hi have just bought an SC400.
ok it has been sitting around for around a year, when it went to lexus for timing belt change.
then sat around for few months...when started was found power steer pump was leaking.
sat for few more months...workshop started it and was running for 10 mins then stopped.

no longer starts...have had ECU sent away and was bench tested all ok.

car pulses injectors once fuel pump pulses once and 1 spark every time trying to start.

any ideas please

I think this is the correct section.

So does it crank? If so spray some starting fluid in the throttle plate and try starting it. If it starts and dies its probably fuel related. If it doesn't start then its a spark issue. Good luck
