Default car wont start
I just got from after driving about 200 miles. And i pulled the car in the garage and turned it off. I went back out 5 mins later to move it. and it wouldnt start . the engine would crank but wouldnt start. theres no sputtering it just turns and nothing happens. I noticed during the drive as i slowed down and stopped at a light the engine temp went up and got to 220. Then went back down as i sped up. I did notice now that i was 2 liters short of anti freeze when i got home.

I do have a superchrager also if that matters.
