Getting an M to start after sitting a few years

Posted by Big Red M on July 07, 2003 at 14:26:26 from (205.188.209.140):

I was wondering if any of you guys could help me out on this problem I have.. I have just gotten an M around the years of 1950-54 and it has been sitting for about 3 to 4 years. The engine is not stuck and there are no problems that I have found so far other than the battery is dead on it. I put the battery on the charger today to let it charge and I thought I would try to crank it tommorow. I have a new battery if it doesn't hold a charge.I was just wondering if any of you guys had a suggestion to help crank it.. I put some fresh gasoline in it a checked all the other fluids. We tried pulling it off today but I was told if the battery is completely dead that it will not crank that way either. Any opinions would be appreciated.
