Car has a problem

[RobV6]

Have a Limited I have been building.stock motor. Went to start it.
Won't run.Ckecked electrical Parts seem good. I think it's bad gas now.

I don't know how to go about this.
Could use some in-put.

Car has been sitting. I have done a lot to this car except for running it.
Smell gas.Put a new 02 sensor.Put new gas tank and pump 2 years ago.
Would be honestly, happy for some advice.....I know this is dumb.....Rob

Am going to have motor done. But have to move it first. TIA

Is your fuel pump coming on? Are you getting F/P? Are you getting spark?

Gas tank 2 yrs ago? Same gas? Time to "start over", by dropping the tank, cleaning it, cleaning/replacing the pump sock, blowing out the lines, changing the filter, cleaning the injectors.
I'd advise you NOT attempt to start the engine, until this is done. No point in pumping all that crap into the system.
Once done, then check the Fp to be sure all's well.
As for the rest of the setup.. Find someone that has the coilpak tester, and is familar with setting the cam and crank sensors.
While you are doing all this, be sure the electrical system is in first class shape.
Don't forget to prime the oiling system B4 you try to start it...

and buy CASPERS coilpak tester, and cam sensor setting tool. Well worth the money, and a real time saver.

If possible, I check the coilpak/module when they are hot.

UR welcome...
