[Mgs] 79B won't start

[Monte/Jane Morris]

I've been lurking again for several years; learning but having no mechanical
problems.

We just got back home after 6 months away. I tried to start the MG to no
avail (cranks well) and due to all the other things that need done haven't
gotten back to it yet. The car started and ran fine the day we left.

At the moment, I have only one question; could the gas have gone bad in that

period of time?  The car has sat for even longer periods without a problem
starting.

Thanks,

Monte
