I’m new to Mitsubishi’s and I got a 97 2.4l 2g last week it would always need a jump or else it would die after turning off so I got a new battery and it’s been running fine.
The heater didn’t work so I changed the thermostat and broke a bolt and the car was sitting for 2-3 days without being started and I finally drilled out the bolt and refilled it with the coolant I had to drain out and I started it and the rpms were super low and it was running rough and then it died now it only cranks but won’t start and it smells like gasoline, I also hammered off the coolant temp sensor on accident and I was wondering if that could be the reason it only cranks and won’t start it’s also cold outside
