Ok finally after months of sitting in the garage and being ignored, I finally got some time to work my Opel.
Since it hasn't run in 10 years according to the original owner, I was a made sure I could manual turn over the engine, performed my first oil change.
12/31/11
Time to change the battery and give it a start up. No luck need new starter.
8/12/12
New starter finally installed. Engine tries to start but won't actually fire. Not getting any fuel to the carburater. Time to begin diagnosing the fuel system.
8/2013
Replace the fuel system with Electric fuel pump and new hoses. Still not running.

With a little fussing, we got her started today. First time in over 12 years. AWESOME!!!!
