I did a full over hale on the engine . it took longer than I felt it should have . My problem is that I can,t get the car to start . I thought I read in my repair manual that the computer would need to be reprogramed .Due to being disconnected from any power for a month and a half . Is this so ? michael

Hi there,

Thank you for the donation,

The first thing to do is get back to basics, do you have the valve timing correct? do you have fuel pressure? do you have ignition? is the spark strong? do you have injection pulse? have you attempted to run a scan? do you have good compressions? are all the sensors plugged in? do you have any vacuum hoses disconnected? check all these carefully and report back.
