Don't see any mention about a new starter! NAPA is a good place for one.

: I recently acquire a 67 cutlass with a 330
: that has been sitting for almost 20 years.
: Before attempting to start I replaced oil,
: oil filter, belts, hoses, flushed radiator
: and put in new antifreeze, new thermostat,
: new HEI distributor with new plugs and
: wires, new Edelbrock 1406 carb. (old one was
: bad). I also put marvels mystery oil in the
: cylinders. After a tough time of even
: getting in to turn over we finally were able
: to but it goes very slowly like the battery
: is dead. The battery is a new one and not
: dead so that is not issue. With plugs
: removed it spins a little easier but not too
: freely. With plugs in it has a tough time
: turning over and won't quite start. I do
: have spark as we checked the plugs. I was
: planning on a rebuild anyway but was hoping
: we could at least get it started. Any help
: or tips would be great.
