Did anyone scan the PC or check the emissions? Coolant sensors are tricky . check the coolant level to start have the emissions ckd & the PC scanned. Im sorry, don't go to the tech with the answer, tell them your problem ! No Start Cold. Very common. Could be vacuum leak, sensors and the list goes on. Those are the most common though. Good luck

1987 Ecoline van V-8 engine hasn't been started in about 7 years. It ran good before that. What do I have to do first to start it and get it running?

I would change all the fluids and either try dry gas or i would recommend that the gas tank be thoroughly drained and new gas put in the tank.If you have a hard time getting started try to use starter fluid in carburetor or if you have none just use gas. If the vehicle is equipped with fuel injectors locate air filter and follow air duct to engine that is where starter fluid or gasoline will have to be pored to prime the injectors.if it don't start the engine should be tuned up with a major tune up replace all filters ect even if it starts without tune up i would tune it up asap!

Hard to start the engine, you need to have little gas before it start even if the engine is cold or hot. (nissan F.E 1.3 engine)

It could be the fuel filter.. If that does not help - try a full tune-up..

Have a great day..
