Stored inside since 1998 for $650 is a excellent deal for someone who has experience with these engines, unfortunately seldom do sales like this one turn up near experienced owners. If the starter is turning, but the crankshaft pulley on the front of the engine is not turning, there is a problem with the starter solenoid or gear teeth are missing from the flexplate or flywheel. This would be a far better problem to have than attempting to start an engine with a timing belt that is at least 25 years old, broken timing belts on these engines bend valves.
