Hey gang.. Got my '95 Olds Cutlass Supreme Convert. which among a nasty oil leak and alternator that needs repaired (still), sadly has taken another turn for the more difficult.

I cannot get it started now. It sits in the garage because of the other problem(s) (primarily the alternator, I don't mind it spittin oil for the time being, heh). I try to regularly go out and start it, but was a little lacking this past 'winter' (I'm in AZ, so winter just means 40's at worst compared to where we used to live, where winter meant -10 windchills!). After charging up the battery as usual, I've cranked it dead with not even a hint of life. As is traditional, I added some "new" gas (tank has been low, keep it that way so I can add fresh gas and burn most of it up idling it, drive around the block, etc). No luck. Cranks like a trooper, but can't even get a sputter.

Is there a way to 'prime' it, or anything I could/need to do? I know on old cars, you used to be able to spray stuff directly into the carb(??) to prime it I think.. Checked the fuses btw as well, not that one should blow on a car that just sits...

Help? ;)
