Staring Car after Long Sit - 06/24/08 08:16 PM

I am getting around to getting my 73 challenger running and am having some issues getting it to start.

1. I have spark
2. I have gas
3. The firing order is correct
4. I believe the distributor is not 180 out.


The car will catch a few times as I am turning it over but it just will not start. Suggestions? I was thinking about pulling the plugs to make sure they are not fouled out, any other suggestiions?

How old is the gas?

How long has it been since it last ran? 4 months or 14 years?

The gas could be pretty old the last time it ran was 5 years ago. I have changed engines since then also.
