Need Help!
 
I need some expert advice yall I have a 86 non turbo w/48000 miles on it. It has been in storage for 14 years and I have changed all the obvious things including taking the gas tank off cleaning it and recoating it. Anyway when I start it at first it revs to about 3200 couple seconds later a very loud noise like a fan turns on then it drops to about 1500-1700. A really sick noise happens after that like a loose belt but I have tightened them down and they are new.When I drive it every time I gas it (to accelerate) it has the same noise. Now after driving it for a little while when it is in park or at idle it tries to die like it revs up then it sounds like its sucking air or something. This really sucks I cant figure it out PLEASE HELP! :mad:

After sitting for 14 years, the engine might not be good from what I've read here (this could be misinformation, just an FYI).

Make sure you have replaced almost EVERYTHING: Plugs, wires, filters, all fluids, belts, etc. Best bet might me to take it to a dedicated rotary shop and have them check it out.

..... how the hell did you find an FC that sat for 14 years? Have any pics?
