Anyone in Oklahoma knowledgeable about FD's?

My FD is currently not igniting(while still turning over) and I don't have the mechanical know-how to fix it myself, and the guy that WAS working on it "disappeared." So if anyone can come take a look and maybe tell me what's wrong with it or even fix it, I can work out payment if someone is serious enough. I hate having this car in my garage sitting and collecting dust. Let me know guys, thanks.

I mean that it's not starting, I pulled the fuse to unflood the car but it still doesn't start. And I ordered a TPS because mine was going out(searching dieing and bucking) and I can't seem to tune it so basically I'm just a newb in need of some help.

mmm...

When did this start and was anything recently done to the car? Any check engine lights? You check ALL of the fuses and BUS fuses (under dash and under the hood)

fwiw, sometimes you have to pull the fuse and the plugs to unflood it. ...or even worse the dreaded ATF trick.

The closest Rotary shop that I know of is the Rotary Doctor in Neosho MO if you can tow the car there.

nothing major.. TPS calibration really. I drove it around the block a time or two and it does feel like it could benefit from a tune-up and vac-leak checks.. i think the car is just fine.

...well 'cept the exhaust leak.
