could be cold start lamba spliut induction or even the plugs are shot because been damp so long

so you dont think anything 2 serious

well couldnt say without it in front of me i mean they are difficult to start if exhaust wheel has fell of the turbo as well a common problem on that engine for example

I'd say as long as its turning over freely ect then could be an easy fix, just depends how it is once its started lol

he said once its started its ok

Might be worth asking why the car got laid up.

Was it running OK before hand?

Easiest way is to get a diagnostic check done on it. Saves messing around and will either tell you exactly which sensor is the issue, or rule them all out which would then point to a mechanical issue.

I used to have an l reg gtst it was L--- NBV long shot but you never know?

what colour is it out of interest, we've seen a few skyline recently,

 

you could be as lucky as just needs a new battery,

 

a consult check should help find the fault,

 

tbh with an old skyline like that your best getting a mechanic to go with you.
