need all the help,<br /><br />I'm moving this to Chrysler/Force questions. I think the experts there will help.

Check the obvious things first. Have you checked the compression? Are you getting a good clean spark? If so is the ignition timed close to specs? Are the plugs good? After sitting that long are you using a fresh gas supply and is the fuel filter clogged. Is the fuel pump working or could the diaphragm be dried and cracked? If you have a good spark and the timing is close I would use a 50:1 gas/oil mix and squirt into the carbs and see if it will try to fire on that. That is what I would try first. Hope it helps.

Need,<br />Sometimes when the motors sit they will develop condensation/oil on the points take a clean white business card (make sure your points are not on a cam lobe)and run your small strips of business card through the points a couple times until you can not see anymore dirty traces on the card. then put it back together and see if it will start. good luck, bret<br /><br />If you need further assistance please email me @ forcepower01@yahoo.com. thanks,Bret
