Was out in it for about 5 mins till engine temp started going up. got to a slip road, started flooring it in second then 3rd, as i got near 6500rpm car suddenly died
First just the orange engine light was on then all other lights came on.
Tried restarting it immediately, then went back a hour later, still not starting. engine seems to be rocking a hell of a lot when trying to start, could it be related. Opened up cambelt cover, belt is still there.
Car turns over as it should, alternator belts etc all turn over. but cars not starting.
unplugged the ICV but didnt help. still just turning over.
is there a paperclip type diagnostics you can do? any ideas what could be, or things to check? all help / advice welcome
