The flap you pushed on is the air flap that controls the amount of fuel injected by the injectors . If you could push down real easy, there is no fuel pressure and most like the fuel pump or it's relay are bad. Pushing down on this flap very soon after shutting off the engine will sometimes make a faint squeaking noise as some fuel is injected into the intake runners.
Get someone to crank it while you push gently on the air flap...if resistence increases while cranking, this indicated there is fuel pressure.
The pump(s) sit under the rear passenger side just behind the axle shaft.
They have a plastic cover over them. 10mmm socket on 6 inch extension reaches the nut through the access holes.
There you can check for 12 volt whilst cranking.
Relays on these fail too.
There is an OVPR , but I can't remember where it sits on that model.
It supplys power to the CISe fuel system.
Excuse me for asking...but......errr... it didn't run out of fuel did it ?
