Those 2.9L engines have no guts whatsoever but also they won't stop running. My 89 sat for 3 years, stabil in the gas and started right up. Drove it on the car hauler to where it is now at my new place. I swapped out the running gear with a 94 Expolder. 3.73 gearing & still a dog except when in four low has plenty of power.

With some vehicles that have sat for 20 years or more the fuel often smells bad, plus there could be rust in it from the fuel tank, thereby clogging the fuel filter and also if stood long enough without running the carb could be contaminated and the fuel lines could also be bad , so empty the fuel tank, replace the fuel lines, clean out the carbie, change the fuel pump if necessary , make sure uve got spark to the plugs and it should start , unless of course it sat so long the rings corroded to the cylinders and pistons then u need to go through a whole other procedure
