Have a 89 M35A2C that I bought a year ago October - It has always started in the first few turns of the starter. Last time I went to start it up it stumbled like it was going to fire up then nothing. I dont use it on a regular basis so it sits for periods between starts. Cranks fine - just looking for some hints on were to start looking for the fix.

starting problem

Just read the post below mine - sounds like a good place to start from. My fuel pump is running - at least sounds like it is. Have to check all the lines as mentioned.
