Hi.

Well my mum and dads Fabia 1.4 MPI wont start. Its done this 3 times over the months. But it did it this morning, and again tonight, But now it wont start at all. All it does is turn over and nothing else.

All the lights on the dash come on as normal and all go off expect the ones that should stay on.

Now this morning they left it for a few mins and locked the car, and i try it and it fired up, Was running crap few a minute or so. The revs was at 1500-1600rpm but soon settled.

Now tonight it wont go, It just turns over and nothing. You can smell the unburnt fuel. They have left it for a few hrs and still nothing.

Will have to get Vagcom on the go, But cant till Monday as my PC is at work, Doh.

Any idea's?

Of you can smell fuel it's probably an ignition fault.

I don't know if it has a distributor, but if so, sheck the cap and rotor arm, check the HT leads and plugs, and check the connections to the coil(s) and ignition sensors.

Sorry to be vague, but I'm not familiar with the car.
