A mate has a vs ss and it won't start, it blow a hole in the top radiator hose spraying water every where, so he replaced the hose put some coolant in and had it running while adding some water, then it just stopped and now it won't start, it has lpg and fuel, we tryed both and it has spark, any ideas?

I'd say water got in somewhere. Water is the enemy of hot electrical components. The coil is the most likely suspect. You may be getting spark but not strong enough to start the engine. Ignition module is another thing to check.
