Car has sat 6-8 months, put in fresh gas, good battery.
Start up pretty good like it wants to go then dies, will do that over in over 4-5 times then it wont fire, let it sit a min and it starts all over.

Ran fine when parked.

FP works and runs, is new............

False alarm, must of been flooded or something, had to walk away for 20 mins and it fired right up oon the 2nd try. Let it run for a good 15 min till the fan kicked on at 200, let it run some more to get her warm.
