  1. Hi All, Looking for some tips on below. Escort Mk1 (RS2000 Engine) been sitting up my unit for about 18 months and not driven anywhere. I started it up around 3 months ago and only took 6 to 7 goes > which I thought was really good as have no choke cable fitted / coke flaps wired open. Went to start it last month and it just will not have it !!!!!! I have checked for spark and its there on all plugs / Electronic Dizzy fitted > new plugs fitted shortly before it went into unit. Thought it might be the fuel gone off > only about 1/2 gallon in tank > so went and got 5 gallons of shell V-Power. The plugs are getting wet with petrol. Timing has not been changed so same as when I drove it into my unit. I have stripped the carb and checked for blocked jets > all seem clear. Batteries fully charged and spins the engine quite quick. Apart from beating the engine with a big stick any tips on what to check next would be good. Ta in advance. Malc.
