Hey, yeah I was planning on a full fluid change, Vac line change, belts, and probably sparkplugs.

The reason it hasn't run is that my uncle just didn't want to spend time on it, so it could be a minor isssue. He put new tires on it so I lucked out there. I am thinking that something small went wrong, since it ran fine up till that point (he's a heart surgeon so the engine and everything should be in almost perfect condition, only Land Rover dealerships did work on it till it quit). At some point, it just stopped and he decided that he did not want to put money/work into it anymore.

I am hoping that the culprit is pretty easy to fix, that way I can just drive it back to my place. If it isn't I gotta rent a trailer and borrow a truck which will be hell.

Keep watching this Thread guys, I hate posting so much, but whatever.

I would like to bring up the possibility that I may part it out if I cant get it running. I would take offers on parts of it now, as long as you understand that at this point I do not plan on parting the car out. I would also still like anymore suggestions that anyone may have on what may be wrong.

See the thing is, he had all that replaced right before it quit about 4 years ago. He just didn't have time anymore. He's a doctor, and he worked in colorado at the time. He needed something *now*. So he just went out and got a new car. (he's a heart surgeon by the way). So the car has only about 100 miles on the pumps, lines, and tires.

Even sitting for 4 years, it was at least under a tarp, so idk. I obviously have to see it before I can decide what I'm going to do. It may turn out to be to much, in that case I will part it out. If however, everything is in as good of shape as it sounds, I will keep it.

Right now I built a 4-bay bowtie reflector from a youtube video and it is working so-so at the moment, however I would like to build or buy something to place in my attic. Ever since my dish went down, I am looking for other options.Ive done some reading on here, but am unsure exactly what route I should take to maximize my channel count.Can someone more knowledgeable make a suggestion on what route they would take for an attic build? Preamp? Rotor?On a side note, would a preamp attached to my current build make any difference in picking up signals?Any more information needed, please dont hesitate to ask.Thank you for any help offered. And if i posted this in the wrong section, i apologize. _________________________________Website I developed for no fax payday loans
