I have been deployed for 6months and my car has been in storage. I went to try and start it yesterday and it will crank but will not turn over. My question is what could cause this? And what can I do to fix it. The car is a standard gt mustang with the exception of an x-pipe exhaust. Thanks for your help.

After sitting 6 mo. It may have lost the prime in the fuel pump, try starting fluid, use only a little bit, too much will cause MAJOR problems, test the fuel pump with a prseeure gauge, also when you turn the key to ON, can you hear the pump run for a few seconds? You should!
