2000 Jackal, sitting for 7 years

Recommended Posts

Okay, I've got a friend (not me!) looking at purchasing a 2000 Jackal that has been sitting in a guy's basement for 7 years. Besides a gummed up fuel system what else do you think would need to be fixed? Seals?

Pull the tank and clean and inspect, same for the injectors and fuel filter. The injectors will probably need professional cleaning and the filter changing. Pull the plugs and rotate the engine by hand then on the starter with the plugs out make sure the LOP light goes out then drop the oil and filter and replace both. Replace all the brake and clutch fluids and bleed. Check the airbox and filter for dirt and critters then the usual stuff. Unless it leaks after you get it running then any engine and gearbox seals seals should be fine.
