Make/Model/Yr: 1996 Toyota Camry
Millege: 220,000
V6 engine
Hi guys! Here's the deal....I got into a fender bender in 2005 back in Arizona, smashed up the trunk, but the car still ran fine. I drove it back to Sacramento a year later for my mother to use for a while. When I returned to Sacramento this past Jan, the car would not start at all. According to my mother, it worked fine, and then it just stopped running. She said it had been sitting in our garage for about 6 months. I tried jumping the car, thinking it was the battery...which was only 6 months old. All the lights came on, but when I tried to start the car, it made a weird clicking noise. The car is also leaking some black stuff...which I am hoping is only a cracked oil pan and something not seriously wrong w/ the engine.
Help!
