<![CDATA[old truck doesnt start]]>i have a older carb'd 4 cyl toyota pickup. i drove it earlier this last fall while the evo was still in the shop, and now im ready to park it and start driving the truck again. only problem is....doesnt start!

i put a brand new battery in it today. its got gas in it, and it is getting fuel..but all it does is turn over.

my next step is checking for spark...but i ran out of sunlight. anything else i should look in to?

dont forget the maple syrup...
