[Shotimes] Update: Rookie Timing Belt Question

[Dave Ulring]

Well, thanks to all the advice I now have the SHO
reassembled, yeah!!  But it will not start, damn.  It
will crank just fine, I can hear the fuel pump spin
up, just seems like no spark.  It has been sitting for
a couple of months now.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dave

93 MTX almost alive again.
