Car wont start after it gets hot

I will test and replace if found open. Thanks again!

Ok well I had time to work on it today, so I picked up an ignition coil and got a better understanding of what it was. As a result it seems I have 2 coils right next to each other.

I tested them both, and the reading was (please bare with my ineptitude with a multi-meter) 5.6 for both, while the new coil I bought reads 8.4 or so.

Do I need to replace them both, or is there an underlying problem?

Yes, both tested the same. I maybe should have noted that the car started fine before I tested it. Do I need to perform the test when it's not properly igniting?

The wire is brand new and connected fine and isn't touching anything. I'll pick up wire loom when I return the coil.

I finally caught it acting up when I had time to test it. It's been starting regularly until today. I tested the coils and they were still reading between 5.6 and 5.7k ohms.

I'm wondering, since it's been starting lately every time, and the weather has also been hot while today it's a little cooler and rainy, if there is a correlation?

If not, what can I try next?

Yes, I still have check engine light, including the EGR code. The valve is not stuck and seems to move normally (though i'd have to feel a brand new one to know exactly). When the car does start there is no apparent drivability issue.

I also still get an o2 sensor code even though I replaced it. I'll try the mist bottle thing asap.

To clarify. For testing with the spray bottle at night. Does this need to be done when the car won't start. And as far as where to spray, all over the engine area in small sections at a time?

Ok well. Finally caught it acting up and while it was dusk I pulled it into the garage and tried the spray bottle. Unfortunately I saw nothing of note.

The car has been starting 80% of the time, and I still haven't seen for sure if it always doesn't start during/after rainfall, but i'm trying.

Any other things to test?

4 cyl, it is.

Shot gun blast?

I have only checked the resistance on the ignition coils, which did not change whether the car was starting or not.

Would it be a good idea, maybe, to take out the coils and module and take them to autozone to get checked? If so, any tips on removing them being on the back of the engine and hard to see?

I think I saw that autozone can test the module, but either way it sounds like I should go ahead and remove it all.

It's been raining for almost 2 days straight here, and it started just fine both days now, so i'm guessing the water thing was just a coincidence.

Let u know what I find.

This car was my daily driver for over a year, and it was my fathers before this for another three years. It drove like a dream and never had any trouble starting before this. My boyfriend and I drove to his friends house for the night, the next morning when we were leaving it wouldn't start at all it sounded like it was bogging down on every turn, we tried and tried until the battery was dead. We tried jumping it and used starter fluid with no luck. So a week went by and we towed it home my father looked at it and we thought it wasn't receiving enough gas and checked the fuel filter and pump the filter was clogged so badly with this gooey syrup like substance, so we bought a new one to put on it. We checked spark plugs they were all good. We then checked the oil it was almost 5 quarts over filled with gas and smelled really strong. We drained the oil and replaced it about half way to see if it would fill back up. The engine is flooding out with gas to the point it was spraying out when we were trying to start it I made my father quit and we let it sit for another week or so came back and he bought a new battery and tried it then it caught on fire. Did someone sabotage my car by maybe putting sugar in the tank or something because the gas did not smell right and we filled it up about four days earlier? It doesn't make any sense it started perfectly every day no problem is it worth trying to fix? Or is it something more serious?

We did check all the spark plugs and they all have a spark we even replaced them just to be sure. I'm not sure if they were wet I don't believe they were my father replaced them. We checked the fuel pump and filter, the filter was clogged beyond belief but the pump seemed to be working. I just don't understand what could of happened to it but I will definitely try checking the fuel pressure regulator and see what's up with it and come back to you on that.

What would cause gas to be in the oil my father is a small engine mechanic but he said he has never come across that in a car?

When we were trying to turn it over and my dad was looking through to maybe try and pin point something the exhaust was leaking what we thought was condensation but when he touched he said it smelt like gas. I know that cant be normal. It also has a timing chain could timing be an issue for it to not catch and turn over?

Thank you so much, Victoria
