Right lads whee do i start , hope its not to bad 3 door cos
Baically all my engine tanks were off that were chrome i.e all of em
not any more
strut brace/shields/rocker cover all getting a freshen up lets say , now put everything back on and tried to start (1.5 weeks off ) and on turning innition on and as it was dark noticed a spark/fuse blowing knid of light down above pedals
Triend to start and was struggling then noticed i was really low on fuel ? so filled her up with the finest super and trien again and noting but trying to turn over but really sluggishly
Then whipped batt leads on to her and tried and seemed full of life again but not firing up , just kept chugging away as if was going to kick into life
Seems to me to be a fuel issue ? what do you think the spark i seen could have been troops ? what lives down in that area ? and a rough idea what to check would be great as im doing it tomorrow as its daylight for 2 hours
thanks again
forgot to add all fluids etc all topped up
