I just took my car out of storage where its been for the past year. It started right up , I drove it homer and several times after. Ran great. Yesterday I parked it in the garage and this morning it would not start. It turns over strongly. Any ideas before I call a flatbed?

I am thinking maybe the fuel pump gave out. Any quick way to check? Any other easy items I can rule out before the ride of shame?

I dont know about quick checks but through some a little bit of starter fluid in it and if it decides to sputter and you hear a combustion then you know its fuel. If it dont its spark. lead with that. Also keep in mind that if you have not had the ecu rebuilt yet do that ASAP regardless of any issues. I do provide the service.

THanks AdaptLab. I was going to try this and was out of starter fluid. I went and got some more, the motor definately tried to fire and run weakly for a few seconds.
Maybe the fuel went bad while in storage. I woudl have put Stabil in it, but a year ago so I can't remembe for sure.

I'll try and look at the filter first and see if it's clogged. Can you tell me where it is?

I did have the ECU rebuilt Tanin a couple years ago when they did ithe instrument display.

fuel filter should be next to the left rear wheel. its just about right in front of it.

Yeah, sounds like bad fuel to me. Mine did that when I picked it up and it had been sitting for a few years
