    My grandfather died 5 years ago and he left a kia picanto in his garage. I tried to start it kanina however it only cranks. I already filled it with fresh gasoline 4 liters but it still would not start. Engine oil is fine. Fuel line is fine no leaks. This was in good running condition before he left the mortal world.

    Any troubleshooting tips?

    check fuel line, electrical lines like spark plugs, ht wires, distributor.

    sana bro hindi mo muna pina andar.

    kapag ganyan, pinapatakan ng konting oil sa spark plug hole, tapos iikutin yung crankshaft manually (socket wrench)

    kapag matigas ikutin, hindi kayang ikutin ng kamay, nagkaron na ng kalawang yung piston/piston rings.

    pero kapag kaya ikutin, pwede mo na start pero saglit lang dapat. tapos drain all fluids na. pati gas.

    Have not checked it pa. Unahin ko siguro fuel line baka barado. Saan ba makabili ng spray yung nilalagay sa intake manifold if it starts? Ano tawag nun?

    mas maigi siguro, tawag ka ng mekaniko. para ma check na lahat. kahit andar pa yan, di mo pwede i drive yan. stuck up na ang brakes nyan, delikado.

    Even if it cranks, ok pa ba battery? 5 years of no charging yan.

    Did you drain the old fuel? They do have an expiration date kahit nasa tangke lang.

    Drain the tank, put fresh fuel, replace the fuel filter and try it again.

    Hindi ba delikado paandarin dahil wala nang langis sa engine parts? I assume all the engine oil has dripped down and the cylinders are all dry.
