Hey guys. Oky so after an hour drive to home. Switched off my car to open the garage door. Wanted to start car which after the first swing starts immediatly.. When I cranked her I heard a wierd pop or type of explotion from the engine bay. So without any throttle the car just would not start.. Got it going with some throttle and sounds like a miss and as if the exhaust is off?? How/where/what can I check???
Kind regards

Re: problems with my ca18det
i have no clue but first thing i would do is check for spark makes sure all your plugs are on their respective place try running a diagnostic on your ecu and see what errors that gets thrown up check all your piping aswell

Had the exact same problem. Sounded like a miss at first. And then just wouldnt start. All the plugs were fouled so bad, put new plugs, all ok now.
