  • MK4 Polo 1,2 won't start..

    Car worked perfectly earlier, parked it at a friends, watched tv for an hour or something, then went out to drive home.

    Turned on the ignition but the sucker wouldn't start. Had battery and fuel() and the starter worked franticly, but it wouldn't start until i gave it a few whips with the accelerator. The motor coughed and vibrated like a bitch before it went dead again. What am i looking at? It could be the injection or fuel pump etc, but what are the chances of this being the timing belt or head gasket? It's my moms car you know..

    Probably the wrong forum, i know, but i figured that it's a lot of VW fans here, who might have experienced a similar problem and i'm hoping it could be a quick fix.
Working...
