problems with 122 out of storage 120-130

It does make a mess doesn't it. I'm glad to know someone else has done it. I was embarrassed before.

By the way, the electrical problems on the 122 are resolved. I had a guy wire it for a trailer a long time ago a,d I hasd to re-wire some of the stuff in the back. I don't know how the hell the tail light and brake light on the passenger side even worked.

I'm still having problems with it starting, though. I drained the gas I had put in it (after having drained it before) and put in new stuff again. The "old" new was kinda dark, so I guess I hadn't drained it all out. This time I jacked the car up to get the drain plug at the lowest place. Still, though, it smells like it's flooding and there's a pool of gas at each butterfly. It also backfires, which is kind of exciting, but not too helpful.

Any sage asvice? I think I'll go out and foul up the timing or something.
