Question

Hey all,

Just quickly wondering if someone can point me in the direction of previous posts or other net sites detailing possible causes and solutions for a WRX engine that turns over but just won't start.

Admittedly this is only an intermittent problem on a mate's WRX, but annoying him nonetheless.

Cheers

J

could be the water temperature sensor is faulty, located down the back left of the manifold under some pipes?
symptoms: occasionally floods a cold engine, you will see a spark and "very" wet plugs if you whip them out, try a full throttle start to clear it out, the sensor is only about £20 and easy to replace.

Imobiliser - loose or damaged connection? Had it happen a couple of times.
