14yrs been sitting pretty -it has spark and fuel it should be able to combust if the engine is turning over-Now why-I don't think the timing chain will just jumped timing being stationary. Lets do this open the dizzy cap and crank engine over is the rotor turning? If okay test the distributor pick-up coil in the distributor. Let me know
