Sat for 11 months, won't start!
My 1968 C20, 396, was parked last August. Parked outside, but in an enclosed shelter.
Last night I charged the battery and it cranks just great today but it won't fire and run. I was pumped the gas peddle to try and get it to start as I was cranking it. I figured I might have flooded it so I pulled the front left spark plug to check and it was bone dry. I poured some fresh premium gas down into the primaries. Then it would squirt gas when I pumped the gas pedal. Still would not fire or start. I poured more gas into the primaries. Still won't fire or start. Pulled the front left plug, still bone dry. Pulled the second left front plug to see if maybe it was wet, but again bone dry. Will pouring gas in the primaries flood certain cylinders while leaving others dry? I am going to go out later and try again. I haven't checked for spark but I will this evening. Any other hints or suggestions?
