Hoping someone can help. KZN130 auto with A/C.
Symptoms - getting hot and intermittent starting issues.
After running for a while it would push out the coolant through the expansion tank.
I replaced the water pump a couple of months ago as the old one was leaking, had the radiator reconditioned (bunged up and holey), flushed the engine and stuck on a replacement viscous fan, changed the thermostat and radiator cap. I now have a starting problem, occasionally it will fire up on first turn, rev to about 1800 rpm and shut down, it will keep doing that. Leave it for a while, try again, and it'll idle for hours no problem. As far as I can tell it will do this hot or cold.
I'm thinking ECU as I saw a similiar (ish) thread on here. Before I go there, any thoughts?
The fuel filter is new ish.
