Vehicle was running good, bottom radiator hose blew, replaced hose and refilled radiator, had problem getting vehicle to start. Vehicle was running good blew another hose going to heater, replaced that hose and now vehicle will crank but will not start. Any help would be appreciated. Have replaced starter, alternator and coil, did not help.

If this has a distributor, it sounds to me as though it got wet when the hose blew. Remove the cap and dry out the inside, put it back on and try again.

It may have even dried out on its own by now.
