18 months ago my Griff was in a similar state of storage, and had been for a similar amount of time. Body off job now complete and it’s a runner.
Why did yours come off the road? Hopefully after those new bits it will fire up fine.
If you do nothing else though, change the fuel pipes. And also the fuel pipes.

Well, new fuel pump arrived and fuel filters, tank cleaned out, everything cleaned out! New fluids thoroughout and fabricated a new fuel pump bracket (old one pictured) after finding the old one was knackered. New battery......
And hey presto the engine is now running sweet as a nut.
Now to get all the brakes sorted and through the MOT.

Update is that everything has now been done and she’s flown through the MOT. She’s had a new fuel pump and new bracket, new fuel filter, new fuel lines and new fluids throughout. Picking her up later, be great to see it running again and have a drive especially as the weather is perfect
Not bad considering it’s not moved for 10 years and has done 700 Miles in the last 17 years! Had some great people helping, Father in law who owns it is very poorly and people have made an extra effort to get it back running so he can see it on the road again. Warms the heart how kind people can be.
