I have an 89 gran finale with 12k on the clock. I keep it in A1 condition and it's kept in a de humidified garage with the battery on a trickle charger. Over the winter I start it up and take it for a drive every two weeks or so to keep things running smoothly. The last run out was mid December. So far so good...
Tried to start it up yesterday and can't get it started. It turns over eagerly but fails to fire..not even a hint of firing up. I have checked that there is a spark at the plugs (it's fitted with Lumenition elec ignition). I have checked the fuel pump works by disconnecting the fuel inlet pipe to carb and turning it over..no problem there either. I got 2 mates round today and we tried push starting it..didn't even hint at firing up. Spoke to my mechanic at DTR who said it sounded odd and he would need to take a look at it...
Any ideas guys before I call homestart?? Jimbro? Cheers
