The car hasn't started in who-knows-how-long, and I'm finally taking another look at it. I tried starting it with one of the plugs out (true left side of engine, rear plug) and I get a weak looking, orange red spark. I expected a nice, healthy blue spark. I tried holding it to a body ground, an intake support bolt, and I also grounded it to the fender (right off of the battery) and the same result each time.
I decided to take out each fender ground fastener and each exposed bolt off of the intake and clean them completely. Then I will go through and clean out all of the mounting surfaces and the female threads.
Is this a sound plan of action or am I wasting my time?
