Any ideas guys, MY car has been sitting for about 2-3 months now, and now it wont' start. The body shop said tis getting gas and its getting spark, Its cranking but jsut wont' fire up.

They got it to start up one time, a month after sitting. Seemed fine Then. Then a month after that time that started it up, it fired up, shot a bunch of smoke out the exhaust, then died. And now it has been about 2-3 weeks since that last time and if won't fire up at all.

Any thoughts?

 

Was it completely warmed up before being shut back down the few times it was started? If not it may have flooded.

 

I doubt it was completely warmed up. IF this is the problem, how do we go about fixing it?

 

Pull the plugs out, crank it a couple times, let it sit overnight with plugs out. Put plugs back in and don't flood it again

 

Just got off the phone with them, yeah they arleady tried that. Anything else? Can sparkplugs go bad after sitting for that long? Ricky, my friend at the shop, is sayin I need some new spark plugs.

 

Get new plugs and put fresh gas in the tank, charge the battery to full power. spray alittle starting fluid in it ( alittle not a ton ) if it starts up keep it running untill full temp is reached or drive it some ( that should feel gooood )
