Charged the battery that was in the truck, but i am not sure if it worked, and i have a charger. It Snowed recently, when i get the ignition switch any tips to make cold starting the engine easier? Also, how does one put fuel into the carburator to get it started?sargentrs wrote:First things first then. Get the ignition switch. Do you have a battery you can use to try to start the truck and a charger to recharge it if you run it too far down?

Re: Conceding defeat
Odds are, it's going to be hard to start after sitting so long anyway. Do you know if you have a manual choke, electric choke or do you have one at all? If in doubt, take a pic of the passenger side of the carburetor, with the air cleaner removed, and post it.
