Engine turns over, but wont start, tried jump starting it with battery booster but nothing and this usually does the trick, changed rotery arm in distributor cap (cap was new 6 weeks ago) still nothing. Tried testing spark plugs but didnt have correct tool to test sufficiently.
The engine was running initially for about 3 mins then had to brake for another car and engine cut out then when tried to re start engine, engine turned over but wouldnt start. Any ideas?
Thank you much apreciated. S.
