Good afternoon!

I have a 1987 I think Lancer box type which has problems starting. Nag ccrank engine pero di nagffire up. It started one cold morning pagtapos umulan. Simula nun di na nagstart. Tried spraying WD40 sa mga distributor cap and spark plugs para matanggal moisture sakaling magstart. Still wala parin. Then naresearch ko na manual choke pala yung car na to kaya I have no clue para san yung knob sa left side ng dashboard yun pala malaki din tulong nun sa pagstart ng tsikot lalo na pag malamig na umaga. Any more advice kung bakit di magstart yung car? The week before one click ignition lang aandar agad e. Thank you!
