I have just recently bought a 84 2m4 SE. It has suffered an engine fire. It looks like it burned up the distributor, part of the wiring harness, and the coil. There may be other things that were effected by flames but haven't really looked. The car only has 90,000 original miles on it. It has been sitting for about 1.5 years. I just want to know if I replace the items effected will it run again? Then I can buy some time on the v8 swap. Thanks

chances are good it will run again since it sat along time you will want to put a little oil down each cyl crank it over by hand then change all the fluids in it and plug so you know your starting out good
