I have an 87 Wolfsburg that has been sitting for about two years.  It had "issues" that we just didn't have the time or money to deal with when it was parked.  I'm now trying to get it up and going again and not being very successful.  Here's what I know:

1987 Vanagaon Wolfsburg edition, stock 

automatic transmission

before unplanned hibernation was running extremely rich

put a new battery in it to see if it would crank .... didn't

interior lights, beeps, etc., all good, fuel pump kicks on 

fuel smell in the engine compartment on first attempt and we found a dry-rot fuel line so we replaced that before further attempts

When you turn the key to the "on" position, you can hear the fuel pump; when you turn to start, I think I hear a click, interior lights dim slightly (not much, just a little), but nothing.  We've tried tapping the starter with no luck.

I just need the thing to start ... and I don't need a real "fix".  It has other issues that need to be dealt with so a temporary solution would be just fine.

Any advice on where to start?

Thanks,

Tonya
