The battery died in my 89 Camaro before winter and I just didnt bother with it until now. Spring. It ran before the battery died no problem. I picked up a new battery today and everything is fine up until I try to get it to fire. It will crank over but not fire.

First thing you should be checking is spark at all cylinders with a spark tester.

Should have bright and blue spark.

Next step would be to check the fuel pressure and make sure the gas is not spoiled.
