Can a vehicle that has been parked for 2 years still be in shape to run, even if it has not been in use. It was parked because it needed a new windshield and side glass but nothing other than was damaged everything was working fine.
Do you
have the same problem?

Make sure the battery is good, all fluid checked and attempt to start-if it refuses to start while being crank over check what's missing -fuel or saprk

Absolutely. I have a '93 Dynasty with just over 4,000 miles that I drive about once every five years. The gas is over 8 years old and the car runs fine. I also have a 1980 Volare with 45,000 miles that I let sit all winter and just drive once in a while in the summer. That gas is also about 5 years old and the car runs as well as a lot of new cars.
