1989 Toyota Camry with 275,000 miles wont start. It has been parked for over a year as we were deciding what to do with it. Now trying to get it running again. Before it was parked it ran good. Now upon attempting to start, the engine tries to start (battery is good, and makes starting noise) but doesn't seem to be getting any fuel. It is fuel injected but can it be primed?

Do a compression check on the engine. If okay, then you need to determine if your engine will not start because of lack of fuel or lack of spark. If fuel is the problem, check the fuel pump, pressure etc. If no spark, check the coil, distributor, 12 volts to the coil, etc
