Re: Car does not start

I don't know that much about 1500s, but I would start by checking the
points.  Can you hear the fuel pump clicking when the key is on?  If it is a
factory unit, sometimes a sharp bash with the nearest rock will do the
trick.  Also, your clutch will last a lot longer if you always start it in
neutral.  I'm sure some of the listers will come up with some other
suggestions for you.  Good luck!
