evo6 won't start

[foxy lady x]

u can't check the clutch unless u take it out, have u checked to see if u have spark at all 4 plugs?

+1

I wouldn't be trying to start car up with no water or the rad leaking!

 

[kkanedaa]

so is there anything i can do now or is the only way towing my car to the garage?

 

[foxy lady x]

i would get it to a garage to be honest get it seen to properly

 

[youngy_315]

when i read the first page i would have said alternator as i had a similar problem last year which turned out the pulley was knackered hence not charging the battery properly and dying on me......

does it start if you jump it or still not?

I don't want to sound obvious, but in that picture you showed of the leak, the bottom rad hose is off. Have you done that?

What dump valve have you got fitted? Is there chance you could get a GOOD pic of the engine bay to see if something isn't right? I believe the starting and the stalling issue are linked and to an effect i think the pressure stuff is somewhat linked too, but i need to see the bay.

I would also check all ur leads make sure there are no breaks in them, take a plug out take an ignition lead then put the plug into lead, place on a metal part of ur car (exhaust manifold will do) then turn the ignition once to see if u have spark, do that with every plug and every lead, if the spark is weak Change all leads and check again, failing that check coil packs.

Also if ur battery is knackered then it won't start no matter how many attempts at jumping it.
So try a new battery aswell.

Failing that maybe ur starter motor?

 

[micevo]

have you checked you cam position sensor, that would stop it starting....

 

[J3ayy]

TBH sounds like you aint got no fuel to it?

If the battery was shot then usually you just get a ticking noise from the starter as it aint got enough power to turn it, thats what mine did

Be careful doing this, i had the fuel ignite in the cylinder whilst testing a spark, especially if its getting fuel to the cylinders.

Yea hence why I said only turn it once lol

wont be starter motor. if that dont work. you should only hear a click from the solonoid.

ECU light on? if so do the flash code check. AND for chirst sake stop turning the engine over with that water leak. Get that sorting overwise youd be turning the engine over with no water, and you'll have no engine left. Get battery on charge too. All that cranking over wears the battery down.

If the Cam pos. sensor has failed the engine will start up and die after one second.

Do u think it could maybe be a fuel pump issue? Maybe if u get some pics up or vids the guys might be able to help u out more

 

[RSmark]

If theres no fuel getting to the injectors, then could well be. But we need to see more pics and vids from the owner.

Firstly he needs to do as you mentioned. spark plugs out and inserted into the leads and earth them onto metal. EG engine block/ strut brace.

 

[foxy lady x]

Yea I'll second that needing pics

 

[fq-craigus]

hope you get this sorted buddy looks to be a nice day to have a go

Which is what i did and got a large explosion and smoke out a cylinder.

 

[Steve220]

Things to check -

ECU - check the code to see what it says, then if its a no go move onto:

Fuel - Is fuel getting to the rail? - Take the fuel pipe off the fuel rail and put it into a container/glass then try and start the car (only turn it over slightly),if its got loads of fuel in the container then move onto:

Ignition - As said before, check if you're getting a spark. Are the plugs ok? What colour are the diodes?

 

[foxy lady x]

have u managed to sort it yet?

 

[stevieITR]

just had a look at you vid, the silver cap on your intake pipe is tat a hole in it? not that this would stop u starting the car but just asking as it kinda stands out.
