This 1982 X19 was a anniversary present my dad gave to my mother in the early 90's. He'd always put it away for the winter and they didn't take it out one summer and there it sat....until now! My dad passed a couple years ago and we forgot about the car until I was helping my mom clean the garage out. It was a dry garage, no flooding, attached to the house, etc. There was an old Bonneville that sat for 10 years, charged the battery, put new fuel in and she started up. This gives me hope that this project won't be the typical find a car in the junkyard and trying to get it to run.
No rust on the visual inspection. I changed the oil and filter, put new fuel in, antifreeze, brake/clutch oil. New battery and the lights all turned on. I go to start the car and it makes a click but the engine doesn't turn/start. I installed new spark plugs and am basically lost at what to do now. Hoping for some help on how to get the engine to turn over. Thanks!
