I went away for 10 days, leaving a healthy car in the parking lot. I got home and can't get it started. It cranks but doesn't catch.
So far:
Cleaned battery terminals
Inspected all the fuses (except that 25A one, where is it?)
Gave the solenoid a few gentle taps
Jumped Fuses 4 and 6 and heard the fuel pump buzzing away
I have gas.

It was starting fine - what could have atrophied while it was sitting there?

Thanks for any help.
