Re: Car Trouble

So you have no Idea how hot the car got? How much coolant was gone? If you have spark and fuel, Maybe you should try a compression check. I have worked on cars that the person overheated the motor and it burnt the valves and the engine had lsuch low compression that the fuel wouldnt ignite because of the lack of compression. Might wanna do a compression check to be safe.
