Hi everyone. I went out to move my garage-kept '66 Valiant this morning and couldn't get it to fire. The batter was bad and that was an easy fix, so I replaced that, but otherwise everything was in working order the last time I started it, which was admittedly a little too long ago.
But we're not talking years and years here, more like it's been sitting for ~6 months. There was a little less than a quarter tanking of gas sitting in it and I've put in another ~6 gallons of fresh gas on top of that thinking that that might be the issue.
When I turn the key it just cranks and cranks. If I put some starter fluid in the choke, it'll fire up and turn for a second or two if I floor the gas, but it dies right away. Then it won't turn all the way over again without another shot of starter fluid.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions to try next?
And apologies if this is in the wrong spot. I'm new here! Thanks in advance!
