I got this wagon brand new in 1986 and never gave any big problems just the normal stuff. Things like new belts, timing belts, starter, alternator but never a no start issue. The problems began after letting it parked under a tree for the last two years. This was wife's daily drive car. Now I will like to use it for fun and maybe do some new paint job or even custumize it a little but, no start. First thing is that it will not turn over from the key switch. What I'm doing is jump wire the pos. terminal of the starter to the pos. term of the battery with the key switch on acc. possition. Some times after doing this for a long while it will start , bad idling, lot of kind of white smoke and after maybe 5 minutes it dies and no start again. Check spark plugs and all are cover with some black stuff that can be easy wipe off with a cloth.
Anyone has any idea. I will love to have my baby back on the road smooth and strong as it was for the 14 some years of great service...Thank you guys in advance.

Welcome!
I'm half Puerto Rican myself. Haven't been to PR since I was like 8. Family is from the Mayauez/San German area.
How do you like driving around your scoob in a tropical climate? hehehe. At least PR has mountains, I live in Miami and AWD is a waste here. No snow, flat as a board...
