I have used BGA this and last car and I research for fun on parts manufacturers.Touch wood worked well for me and noticed incognito was fiting BGA on his at propefest too.
Never done myself so check but believe you need sealant too.

Re: car cranks but won't start
Wait for a tech to answer re dizzy.
I think the box you are talkingvabout is the immobiliser which caused problems so most people bypassed them.Do you have a key fob with a button separate to the key and does it still work.Or do you have a different type of immobiliser or none at all.

Rad cap test
Its not urgent as I am trying to replace info on the old forum.
How to you test a rad cap and does it apply to the front pressure cap only.
I am not convinced my back old flap cap had anything wrong with it so I can experiment and put it back on and see how it goes but would help to know.
