Default 2003 300 ex wont start

Please help! My 300 ex has been sitting for a while. The batterey seems to hold a charge(lights work) but all I get is clicking.
Any thoughts?
The few times I have gotten is to run it stalls out quickly. Could it be bad gas?

most likely, annother thing that might help alot with starting is getting the valves adjusted back into spec. maybe bump starting will work....

When mine did this it was bad ground connections.Try cleaning all the connections to the battery and the ground to the chassis.Also the battery micht just be too weak to roll it over.

I tried jumping it and it started with full choke and ran for about 7-8 mins then stalled. After that it would not start again. When I spray some starting fluid it will start and imediatley stall. The wiring seems fine.
Any suggestions for next step?
