Hi All, Wondering if you can shed any light on this... I just drove the car round the corner from my work it was all fine, turned the car off.....tried to start the car 5 minutes later and it won't start now, it's ticking over fine all normal but it won't start...any advice would be appreciated.

 

QUOTE Its ticking over fine all normall but wont start ?????

 

As in when I turn the key i could hear the starter motor etc...but its not starting.

 

Oh ok i see so its firing up but wont start..

Ok the battery is ok u got ignition lights and starter is turning ??

Have u got fuel presure regulator if so is it working 2barr ish on meter if not is there plenty fuel ?if it was plugs it would of started 5 mins ago u would of got a rough drive before stopping sluggish ect.

Have u gone over speed bump or hit anything in the road sounds like fuel issue to me???

Another thing has it got an alarm and immobaliser? these play up and cut ya fuel off. There could be so many things without knowing the car and what u have its hard to put a thinger on it ..

 

Yea exactly, erm...yeah the car was completely fine on the journey, started up fine, and also didn't hit any bumps or anything on the way. I haven't got a fuel pressure regulator, however its a 97 wrx import mapped to simtek...and it has got alarm and immobilizer. could it be that the spark plugs are flooded, as the cars got anti-lag but wasn't used whilst I was driving before the problem occurred.

 

like fud said seems like a fuel prob!!!

 

What year is it? uk car or import?
