Car: Punto 2001 1,2 16v
Problem: Car will not start after overheating due to a coolant leak. Engine turns but besides a little puff from time to time, there's no life
Checked: Plugs are clean and all smell of gasoline after turning over. Leads are new (the old were TOAST after the overheating - never seen that before). Battery's good. Ignition module seems OK (don't know any other way to check it besides checking resistance with a multimeter). Fuel pump runs when tested.
Tried Multiecuscan but I have the KKL cable, so the only thing I could check was the Ignition system. No codes in memory. I will order the ELM cable, but won't have it until next week.
Do any of you have ideas about what to check?
Thanks in advance,
Peter
