Help! It won't start!
Believe me when I say that I have been looking through this site for help but I need more.
This past weekend was not a good one but here is the whole story:
I have a beautiful 1973 911T upgraded to "S" specs that has a 76 2.7L engine in it that has CIS injection. Over the last two years I have been resoring this car and now I have only the carpets to put in. Last summer I got the car road worthy and drove it half way across the country (West to East). What a drive! Anyhow, for the winter I had it stored in a heated garage and a month ago it came out where I gave it a nice run for about an hour or so to get it nicely heated up. It was then parked for a month as I worked on it. Last Saturday I got the car started and gave it a wash. Once again, as I was washing it, I had it running so that it could get up to temp. No problems. So, Sunday, the day of my first autocross, I started the car up in the morning, and as I was loading the car the car just quit. I thought that maybe the gas tank was reading wrong so I went and got some gas. The car started then quit 5 to 10 seconds later. I then tryed to restart it and it wouldn't lite at all but it still turned over. I checked the obvious, fuel and spark and the distributor cap was in good shape. I then tryed to start it again to no avail. With a little cool down it might run for a few seconds otherwise it won't light up at all.
One final note. When I try to give it gas as an attempt to stop it from stalling it caughs and splutters for maybe a second or two then quits.
Gentelmen, I need your help. This could take us a few days but since I have no dealer anywhere within 6 hours, I've got the time.
