MAZDA TRUCK

1987 B2000 Mazda Pick-up with 157,000. This truck has sat for a year in a barn in upstate NY. When I pulled it out it would not start, nor would it even make a clicking sound when being jumped. I put a new battery in it, sprayed some starting fluid down the carburator, then rolled it down a hill in an attempt to pop the clutch. This did not work either. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Okay-lets try this put a socket upfront on the crank pulley and attempt to turn engine over atleast one revolution.

We gonna take this thing one step at a time till we get this to fire up and go. Don't worry be happy I used to own one that year. I know that truck in and out. Only that year though-but I'll take the others.
