Hi,
my car arrived home normally and it didn't start next day. It turns the engine for while and stop.
What I checked:
- fuses in the engine compartment
- fuel pump works when opening the door
- battery is charged
- spark-plug electrodes are OK -although their thread was quite oily
- I tried to read out with Scanmaster software the error codes when I ignited, but no error codes reported
How can I check the distributor? It was replaced about 5 years ago and then only one cylinder was wrong and the car started and moved.
What can be wrong?
Thanks for your help in advance!

It could be the coil pack or the crank position sensor
