Yesterday morning i ran the car till temp was in middle and switched it off then tried putting a jump cable from the battery to the starter bolt still the same turns over very slow then has no power.

Ive been told if the car has hydraulic lock to take spark plugs out and try starting it and there should be water coming out of spark plug holes but nothing came out. while i was starting it the starter was just making a spinning noise.

the smokes cleared up alot been told its piston rings cos its got new valve oil seals, the cars in garage on wednesday for to get the timing checked just to make sure.

btw nice car xr2 looks really well with them wheels on.
