Please help.
Car was running sweet, took it for an MOT but it failed emissions so they added some sort of fuel/engine cleaner to get it to pass. Drove it home fine and parked up. The next day it started as normal but then the engine died a few seconds later, got it going again and drove it 3 miles where the engine died at every junction when trying to idle. Parked it up, next day it wont start. It has a brand new battery and the engine turns and every few seconds sounds like it is sparking on a cycle(?). Trying to start it makes the exhaust smell like petrol. Full tank of petrol too, fuel cutoff is not raised, fuses all look ok, key code light not on, injector light not on, no liquids coming out of engine bay that i can see easily.
Any ideas? :bang:
