What was history of this engine, non runner when you got car?
Steve I'm the original owner of the car it just sat too long and after cleaning gas tank, replacing the fuel filter and fuel pump she started ran for a few days then nothing. So the test made my decision easier anyway and I don't have to mess with it anymore. The car has 131, 000 km never winter driven and it's a nice base car not worth getting rid of. I have all the bill receipts and original bill of sale. I know everything about the car including I started taking the interior out in 1999 so thats what I get for starting after so many years.

Oh well next decision just got easier.
