I drive 90 miles to my inlaw's barn, find a ton of snow still there so no way the car is coming out today but I figure lets start it up - chug chug chug nothing, I've had the battery on a charger all winter, even have a portable booster. 1.7 big bore engine, ran fine 5 months ago when I put her away. Fuel stabilzer added at that time.
I pulled the top off the carbs, fuel getting in, fuel pump working fine. I had new points put in a 6 weeks before storage. I pulled the cap, there was a little corrision so i scraped some of that off but still no go. Could the plugs or condensor have gone bad during storage? Any other ideas? No mice damge during storage (lot and lots of moth balls) |
