Hello All,
I've had the 8 garaged for the last 3 or so years. Started it occasionally just to move it around the garage; for the last year, not started it at all! Batteries died, so bought some new ones 'cause I want now to get it back on the road. Car won't start, turning over strongly but no spark at all! Looking at Timms meeknet site, I suspect that the engine has flooded, all fits, cold starts, little travel, and hot ambient temperature. Thing is, is it worth going through the operation of 'unflooding' it with the current petrol, 20 litres of 3 year old 95, and I just put another 20 litres of 98 in hoping it would make up the difference?
