I can only say that for the old cars even sitting for a year is not healthy, because most parts of engine, starting system, charging system will get corroded/deposited. Most probably you will need to change battery, motor oil, fuel, spark plugs, check the starter and alternator. Also check the fuel pump, fuel filter. First shot would be battery, fuel, spark plugs and starter.
Good Luck

89 camaro rs 350. been sittin for 2 years. needs starter fluid to start most times. no muffler on it at all. will that cause it no to crank or to die while sittin at a red light?

most likely has nothing to do with no mufflers. u prob have bigger more obvious problems if u have to use starting fluid to start. how does the engine run while driving, and at idle after warm?

Hard to start

Have you changed out the starter, sure sounds like a starter or starter wiring issue.

Car wont start

ok having that much oil over the limit will not matter at all ,,if it does not turn over at all check your battery is ok /full,,if it is and it still wont turn over the only other problem it could be is the starter motor is had.. its jammed or seized try tapping the starter motor with a little force if it starts its on its way out because u had to tap it to start it . if it still doesent it has seized but that will be the problem ..

also just make sure all your wiring is still on the starter motor
