300E doesnt want to start now...Help me out here guys
I left my 87-300E for about 3 days without starting or moving it. I was going to refill one of the rear tires up and it hesitated 2 start at first..but it started and I moved it nd parked it backwards facing my garage(a slight slope). I went to re-start it again and it wants to fire up but it's just not, I stepped on the gas a few times and i heard a couple of loud HUFF's or POP's (w/e you want to call it) from the throttle body. I kept at it and it started up but wen i put it in gear nd tryed to move it slowly..it stalled on me. Now it doesnt want to start at all
. I need all the help I can get.
Thanks,
Andre.

If your car is starting by giving it a bit of gas, then you should check your OVP.
It is located behind the battery (you have to remove the flimsy black plastic wall) and it lays in there, it uses a 10 fuse which lies inside a flip lid.
DIY Takes about 5 minutes.
