FIRST IS THERE FUEL IN THE TANK, CHECK THE SECURITY AND CONDITION OF THE BATTERY TERMINALS / CHECK THE HT LEADS ARE SECURELY CONNECTED TO THE DISTRIBUTOR CAP / CHECK THAT THE HT LEAD TO THE IGNITION COIL IS SECURELY CONNECTED / CHECK THAT THE LT WIRING PLUG AT THE IGNITION COIL IS SECURELY CONNECTED / FIT NEW SPARK PLUGS / THEN SPRAY ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS ABOVE WITH WD 40 .
