evo6 won't start

[kkanedaa]

first of all, thanks to everyone who is trying to help me out i read all replies in here and im sure the solution got to be one of them. please notice however that im a newbie so i don't know how to perform all them by myself.

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.

the leaking was a small fix. the plugin at the bottom of the radiator somehow came of. i just plugged it back and tightened it properly. here are some pics of the engine bay, hope it helps

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

that's what i was thinking too because i ran out of fuel before the problems started. the fuel pump might have overheated and..yea..pretty much says it all.

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?

sounds very interesting. im not quite sure however how to do steps 1 and 2. could you please give me some details on how to perform them. really want to give it a try. btw, no ECU light on.

thank you eveyone for advising and helping a brother in need :^^:

hi mate im a mobile mechanic and by the sound of your engine on the vid i would say you have lost compression on one or two of the cylinders, which would account for all the problems you are experiancing.With the water leaking if it had overheated at some point it could of fried the head gasket, if you cant get a compression tester take it to a local garage as they should have one and test all 4 cylinder compressions.Hope it isnt this but by the sound of it cranking over thats what i would be looking at first

thx for the reply, trackday. do you know how much it would cost to get it repaired if it is due to lost compression?
