Same thing happened to me, though with a different vehicle. Problem was the previous gas that was in the tank basically turned to varnish during the sit up. I had to drop the tank and flush it clean. (I used paint thinner) Pour it in and shake it around, 2 or 3 times. Then pour in some more and let it sit overnight. Drain that and reinstall tank, and fill with new gas. Also get some high quality carb cleaner and clean out the fuel lines. Also replace the gas filter. (CHECK IT FIRST....THAT MAY BE YOUR ONLY PROBLEM)
There were ( 2002 to 2005 ) Ford Thunderbird model years in the 2000's
a thunderbird came back from thousands of years ago from native American mythology.
Shawn 'Thunderbird' Jamison is 41 years old (birthdate: October 10, 1969).
I am no mechanic but I would certainly start with the fuel system...is the gas fresh, is it getting gas, etc
Yes.
It started almost immediately after the capitol stopped the rebellions
After sitting so long, you could have a bad battery, bad plugs, a bad fuse, bad gas, sludge in the carburetor if there is one, clogged injectors. These places are a where to start.
no where
sounds like you need a NEW battery once a battery is 2 to 3 years old the cold will kill a battery
8 years/80k Expired unless this has been parked for a few years
everything except the reistration plates,lol. seriously tho, if it worked when parked, charge or replace battery make sure it has fuel, oil engine coolant. then start itif it runs fine why replace anything
Thunderbird is free and open-sourse.
