Default Help Mike Get His Car Running

If anyone's up for a challenge and has a lot of patience, I want your help getting my stalled project running and driving before I give up.

The car hasn't been driven in about 15 years and has been sitting the last 3 since I moved it.

It had these known issues when I parked it about 3 yrs ago:

- Rust and debris in fuel system
- Would not idle (flooding, may or may not be related to rust)



Here's a link to my last unsuccessful attempt. Thanks for the good help from many of you:

One big decision:

- Replace the gas tank or not?

How would I inspect and determine condition of the tank and lines?



After that, where to start?

Assuming the car is a complete unknown, what would you do first?



Things I had planned and will continue as I dive back in:

- Replace radiator
- Replace damper
- Revisit distributor
- Revisit fuel pump
- Deal with transmission fluid leak
- All the things I should have done, did wrong, or don't know about yet


Mike
