I have a 50 Chevy with a 235 inline 6. My truck had been sitting idle for several months and the other day I started it. Seemed to run fine for a couple of minutes then it abruptly quit. I tried to restart it and the engine turned over fine but never fired. I let it sit and came back the next day only to discover I had left the key on, and the battery appeared to be dead (starter would not turn). So, I recharged the battery and tried to start it. Still no activity in the starter. Seems like an odd sequence of events. What is the sequence of tests that I should run to get this thing going? Thanks!!!
