Engine cranks will not start?

Believe it or not, the car actually gets hotter after you shut it down because the WP is not circulating the antifreeze. I say this because a LONG time ago a friend was having a similar problem. Turned out as the car got hotter after he shut it down it expanded which caused a switch or sensor (I can't even remember which one) to create an open circut until the car cooled enough to contract and close the circut. I don't know if this helps, but it sure is interesting.

That can actually be true, and what usually is the problem is the engine coolant temp sensor. Have it checked, and remember, just because a sensor may be faulty, does not always cause a check engine light.
