1984 245 Wagon won't start
I bought this wagon about 6 weeks ago as a second vehicle. First three weeks it started right up.
Then I got busy with work and let it sit for 3 weeks on the lower level of a parking garage. Tried to start it today and it cranks but won't start. The battery is good.
Any thoughts on what I should check?

Did some googling and looks like the fuel pump relays are a common issue. Pulled them and one looks like it's original and the other looks like it's been replaced. We had some cold weather during the 3 weeks that it sat so maybe the original relay finally gave out. I also didn't hear the fuel pump turn on when the key is in the on position. Going to replace both relays tomorrow and see what happens.
You say relays - plural? Where's the other second one? The only one I thought I knew of was the big fat one just underneath the dash on the left hand side. I thought the big fat one controlled both of them? What's the other one do that you replaced?
