called the RAC round... flooded with fuel... but im not sure itl last long... its started today but the coolant sensor has come on car is overheating and i dont think the fan is comin on

[Royalratch]

Check coolant level? Fan coupling? Thermostat? Can't see how they'd be related to the fuel flood tho...
