    My comet hasn't started in a few months it ran descent when it did run but any ideas on what problems it could have? And how much does a rebuild kit for the 302 cost

    If you haven't run it in a few months the fuel bowls are probably pretty dry, could need new plugs, could be a low battery. What happens when you turn the key exactly.
