Smile Mr2 not starting

Hi there,
I have a 1990 mr2 1.6 twincam. It has been standing for 8 months at didn't start as I expected. I just wondered as it won't even tick over after a col winter, I'm guessing a new battery will be needed but is there anything else with it being off the road that may be an issue wit starting or is this where I should start?

Cheers

Re: Mr2 not starting

first you want to kick it good and hard for not starting right up. then get a battery, new gas, new fuel filter and change the oil.

You won't know about the starter until you get a good battery in there.

Those things should get her started if it ran when you parked her.
