hi, i've posted in the noob section as i'm a complete novice, when it comes to fiats, had/have fords and volvos.
i've been given a X1/9 and will have to collect soon, it hasn't started for 15 yrs and stood for a further 5, would it be ill advised to try and start it straight away as it has a belt not a chain for timim=ng and may have perished, is it and interfearence engine or not? as the last thing i want is to bend valves. should i look for anything particular?
thanks in advance!
