Congrats on the purchases!!



I'm not joking when I say I'd trade a subaru for that truck too...



Maybe it's just bad/clogged, fuel injector/injectors. It's too bad your not close I have a couple S5 sets lying around.

you have spark? do the injectors work?



i think id unplug the fuel pump, and pull the plugs and crank it, til its clear



odd mine started right up, and the fuel pump looked ok, yet it was parked longer?
