Lost VP key how to start

[Coaldust666]

Hi guys
My partners lost my VP keys, I desperately need to move it to the garage, winter condensation and **** seals are making for mouldy seats.

Tried turning over the barrel with a screwdriver to no avail, think I'm missing something?

The security system.

Immobilizer? Never had one

Battery charged, terminals tight?

Yup, it's turning over but dies a second or two after actually starting. Not sure why, doesn't usually have any problems starting.
Also tried jumpstarting

Cranks,fires then stops after a few seconds- that sounds like fuel although there were aftermarket security systems that would do that 30 years ago.

did your keys have a remote

Yeah I did wonder about fuel, it was sitting on a bit of a hill so the ass end was tilted backwards. Had a bit more goey with a squirt of engine start.

Bloke up the road from me (also 90s commy nut) recons the vp models didn't have any extra security.

Ended up just towing it round to the garage but that doesn't solve the lost key problem.. I'll try again tomorrow with it being on a flat spot with the fuel suspicion
