I am in a position where I need to move my 64 out of the garage. The
car has not been started for several years (3-4). I charged the
battery up, poured a little gas down the carb, and turned the key,
and nothing happened. There was a single click (like the solenoid
firing), and then nothing.
Any ideas on the cause of the nothing? Is it likely a bad
starter? Could it be a bad battery (the battery is 7-8 years old,
and has been sitting most of that time). Could it be something more
serious? Is there an easy way to tell (in case you haven't guessed
already, I am not terribly mechanically inclined). I could hear a
very quiet whirring sound that could have been the starter spinning,
but I can't be sure.
Thanks for any information you can offer to help,
Mark Elliott
