Car just cut on me

You dont have an alarm on it do you?

No. I do have an immobilizer, but I think it's not at fault here.

Could be a crank sensor I guess. Make sure the vacuum hose for MAP sensor is ok too, and its plugged in. Could be a blown ECU too.

What's the odds it just randomly starts in a day or two.

[dkrevs]

I'm just back from garage.

I measured crank sensor resistance and it's around 250ohm(it must be between 150 and 250ohm, so that's fine). I tried with other sensor which had laying around(measured resistance is around 230 ohm) and nothing.

I tried resetting ECU, but that's not helping either.

It sounds strange when I crank it but cambelt is not ripped. It just doesn't sound right. I think cambelt could have slipped a tooth or two.

Next thing I will now do, is to determine if engine is timed correctly.
One thing is for sure, if any valves are bent or some other major mechanical failure, then engine swap is comming.

You sure about that?
Check and see if there are any (non-standard) wires going to the coil.

I'll have a look, but I doubt that there's anything non-standard.

Oh, and I also tried with spraying some WD40 in the throttle body but it didn't fire up.
