Depends on how long it sat. If it went long enough, the fuel system will be in bad shape.

not to jack your thread or anything, but where in Alabama are you? im up north, in Madison. right outside of Huntsville, just bought a 87 TII and a 88 TII. goin to have to pull engine and trans from the 87 to make one good car. if i was you i'd talk him down as far as you can, only place i found my 7's was 50 miles away, and they both don't even run! and on top of that i've only seen like 3 other 7's here in Madison / Huntsville. no harm in putting 500 for injectors in a car you bought for 400.
