Car won't start, just turns over

If it's flooded it might be a spark-plug out job before trying a restart ????

I'm aware this isn't the easiest job on a V6..............

I used to have an issue with my Spyder every now and then. Had to remove the plugs and clean/dry before throwing them back in, it would then fire first time.

However you "may" have an electrical ignition problem ????

Good Luck

Well this seems to be the answer [smilie=yay.gif]

My bro took out the spark plugs, cleaned them up, put them back, he then hooked the battery up to his car battery, turned her over and vrroooooom! She's back. Starts up absolutely fine now (all leads etc disconnected), so I think the flooding/spark plug was the issue. Once she started she spat out quite a bit of crap out the exhaust but now she's fine :). Thanks for your help.

Sure it'll be fine but you got cat or decat exhaust? If cat then watch out for any whitish deposit on the inside of the tail pipes in the next couple of days. Loads of fuel being dumped into the exhaust system doesn't make the cats happy chappies.
