engine has only done 84k the car hadn't been started in a while, put jump leads on it drove it up my street slowly then parked up idling to let battery charge. i then drove it up the street again slowly and it cut out, EML came on and stayed on and it wouldnt turn over, i chucked it into reverse and bumped it and it turned over spluttering but the EML stayed on for a good 20 minutes... wot could it be, its not tapping or anything not losing oil or water its fine that way nt long had head gasket changed,
i dont drive this anymore my dad does but i dont know what it could be?

any help greatly appreciated
