Car over heated and now wont crank will turn over but wont start

Pay close attention to the sound of the engine while it cranks over. The cylinders shd all sound the same as it cranks. If it sounds funny, the head gasket has been damaged. That is an expensive repair

Problem 5: Engine Cranks But won't Start

Hot does make a difference. You say it won't start, but does it crank and not start, or not even crank? If cranks but will not start, any electrical part may fail as it heats, and when you shut it off the engine gets much hotter since coolant is no longer circulating. Thus, a marginal crank or cam sensor, or coil/ignition module may work while cold of while engine is running, but fail when you first turn car off.

When an engine overheats, they should be shut off immediatly when any warning lights come on, or the temp. gauge reads extremly high. At this point, under extreme heat, your valves will heat up, get soft and bend. Your pistons will melt holes through them and your rings will break. Depending on how long the engine was ran in an overheated condition, your might have an engine with NO OR LOW COMPRESSION.

need add add antifreeze half antifreeze and water to raise coolant boiling point. replace thermostat and radiator pressure cap.wait until engine cool then try starting it up.depends on how long you drove car when engine over heated.if you turn off engine soon as it over heated no harm done.if you kept on driving and engine die of lack of cooling, and car wont crank you could have blown head gasket warped or cracked cylinder head.

I would start with thermostat replacement. Sounds like yours is starting to stick.

IF CAR OVER HEAT IT WONT CRANK.CHECK COOLANT FAN FUSE AND RELAY.IF ALL IS GOOD YOU HAVE FAULTY COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR.IF SENSOR OKAY HOTWIRE COOLANT FAN IF RUNS FAN GOOD IF NOT REPLACE FAN MOTOR AND CHECK COOLANT FAN WIRE CONNECTOR.

If it over heated, could have bad head gasket's, fill radiator with water, crank engine with radiator cap off, if water is push out of radiator while cranking, bad head gaskets', also remove spark plug's, crank engine if any water, bad head gasket, also when spark plug's removed, check for any water on them.If there is any water on plug's, bad head gasket, also could try doing a cylinder compression test, if bad compression, head gasket, no compression, wont start that way.

9 out of 10 times you have starter issues eithier your starter is about gone or you need a heat sheild
