One other thought; have you turned the motor over with the valve covers off to check for stuck valves?

i have done videos on the covers been taken off and checked before attempting this :)

I just found your channel, a few years ago I read in practical classics about a guy getting an old Capri, never seen it run, he used 2 12v batteries to get the engine to start and it worked

As our American cousins would say, you need to fire the parts canon at it! Change pretty much everything you can, get the starter and carb both rebuilt. Someone suggested taking the plugs out and putting oil in the barrels which is a good idea. With a decent battery that starter should turn the engine over at a decent rate. Because it isn’t, the starter is suspect and the motor could well be gummed up after standing for so long.

If you flood the engine with gas you need to hold the throttle wide open, you need to introduce enough air to compensate for the excess fuel.

Good comments from Denis below. I've been where you are with motors; but it sounds like this is in basically good health. Make sure you're giving it a really strong crank; good battery, good starter. Otherwise you're not giving yourself a good chance. Assuming the timing is basically in the zone and your exhaust isn't blocked, might be time to look into the carburettor......FWIW I agree with Denis; I'd check the timing next.

The battery is of my daily lwb high roof van might be the starter brushes are corroded and need cleaning thanks for the advice tho I will give it another try soon just need to finish the work on my bulkhead have you seen all the videos on my cortina restoration:)
@deerawselecta7709
@deerawselecta7709 6 месяцев назад
Firstly,check static ignition timing,sounds like it may be too far advanced.remove starter and clean all internals,making sure U scrape the grooves in the commutator as they tend to fill with carbon as brushes wear.rig up and overhead fuel feed,(eliminates the need for a fuel pump) then double check the firing order,these old girls are pretty bomb proof,but they need every helping hand U can give to wake them.hope this helps.

The old girl has been stood for years and turning over slowly leave some oil in the pistons and leave it stood till you get everything done I would get a carb kit rebuild and clean that out but if it's holding you up then leave it get all that welding done as you have got loads to do I do welding and fabrication for 25 years and it would take me 6 to 12 months to do but i like to take my time do a good job and I've got the right voltage mig welder to do it so good luck with it don't worry about the engine yet mate

Exhaust might be blocked up with mice nest.. sounds like your timming is slightly out. Put a screwdriver down cylinder one plug hole and stop piston at the top. See if timming mark is lined up. You putting 24 volts through a 12 v coil. Its getting hot quick. Disconnect exhaust at manifold. Think you got teeth missing on the ring gear. Maybe why it was parked. Is it a Auto. Might have a saftey switch on it. You can pull the plugs and heat them on the stove. Get them hot. What millage on the engine.

@DenisEdwards-ls2de
@DenisEdwards-ls2de 6 месяцев назад
To much fuel can hydrolock . Sounds like thats happening. Use Brake cleaning fluid. No ether in that. No so volitile as starter fluid. Maybe transmission is draging engine down. Put Autobox in neutral.. check your plug wires are correct firing order.
@DenisEdwards-ls2de
@DenisEdwards-ls2de 6 месяцев назад
@@AdamSNook. You have battery and charger connected. That's 24volt plus. If you are wired battery to coil direct you putting 24 in the coil. It's cooking quick.. did you put new condenser. Ask your wife for a Emory nail board. Sand the points even. Pull plugs and clean plugs put on stove. Turn engine over with no plugs. Clean out cylinders. You nearly there. Is your old fuel line disconnected.
