my car (95 fomula) was sitting in the garage for a while and id go start it up here and there, but one day it just didnt start, wouldn't turn over, no clicking, no radio, no power windows. i was thinking that it's something to do with the ignition but im not sure. i was also told that it could be the computer. all of my lights work inside and out and my battery if fully charged. i tried looking for other posts about this but could not find none. did anyone have this problem before? and if so what was it?

Hi

My 97 Z28 has sat for the last two years. I start and run it at least once a month for 30 min or so, just to keep a charge on the battery, circulate fluids, etc. Have you done this? Mine had similar symptoms whenever I let it go too long between starts. Lucky I had a warranty on the battery.

My personal problem is related. Made an oops. Started and ran...until I drained the gas tank. Refilled with about 6 gallons. Have been cranking, cranking, cranking. No start. Works fine before the oops. Crank some more?

u could have fried the fuel pump, i hear they are easy to burn up if you let the tank run dry

Yes,

Sadly, I have come to that conclusion about my original fuel pump. Now, my question is, what to replace it with? I have done some reading about tweaking this motor. It seems that once you put bigger injectors, cam, so forth, that the stock fuel pump needs to go. Now the time to upgrade? Will I need injectors, or will a hot fuel pump work with the stock injectors?
