and I was just getting ready to sell the damn thing too.

My 98 integra GSR has been sitting in the parking lot for about a month or so without being driven. I started it up today, washed it, then parked it to take some pictures. Tried to start it up again and it wouldn't have it. Cranks fine, but the motor doesn't start - tried jumping it, no dice. The gas tank has been pretty empty for a couple months now, maybe condensation?

^ no


not to be captain obvious, but does it have actually fuel in it? if it is low and parked on an incline it may not pick it up

put a few gallons in it, turn the key on for 5 seconds then off a few times and try it again
