Ok so yesterday I hosed the engine bay.What a stupid mistake..
It started first go and ran fine. let it idle for about 5 minutes. Turned it off. Done this about 3 times over 4 hours. On the last time It started a bit rough.Rann for about a minute then stopped and now it wont re start. I have checked every plug.lead.dizzy cap and coil for water and its all dry. Anyone got any suggestions how to test dizzy and coil to work out which one of these is the probelm??? |

Have you tried leaving it to dry out over night?
When you say it wont start do you mean it cranks but will not fire? Should always disconnect battery when hosing engine bay but i guess you know that now. You never said what car but will most likly be a fuse in wire loom that has blown, iv seen this happen in EA and EB's. If you know how to use a mulitmetre its not hard to find blown fuse |

sorry its a EL 98 model. It has spark but very weak.I let it sit over night and still no luck. I have a multi meter but not very good with it.I got a rough idea how to use it.

Invest in a test light...around $5 in the clearance shelf of your friendly automotive rip off shop. |
