My car had been running hot when at idle so I changed out the thermostat yesterday. Now the car will turn over but won't start. Is it possible this problem is because the thermostat was installed wrong?

Hi there,

This will have nothing to do with the thermostat installation, i am thinking that you may have knocked a sensor or distributor connection, check to see if you have spark.
