Hi to all!!
I had to check my account to realize it has been about 3 years that I haven’t used my Savage 4.6 …
All I’ve done these years, was to spray some WD-40 inside the cylinder every few months, turn the motor by hand and let it sit in the bottom / lower piston position.
Now that I decided to “play” again, it won’t start….
Everything is charged, roto-start turns OK, glow plug gives a nice orange/white glow, there is compression, no leaks detected, fuel runs OK if I blow the pressure pipe from the exhaust …
Could it be the fuel? It probably is more than 4 years old …
I even tried to run it lean (screwed in by one turn) but no luck.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance,
Thanos
