I got my latest 240d unloaded into the shop. Fuel probably leaked down from sitting and needed to be bled. I discovered it could not be bled properly because whoever installed the little fuel line from the prefilter to the bleed pump had th screws pointed so they were blocking the pump from being able to be pushed all the way down. Adjusted those and bled it. Now I just have to get the battery charged up and will see if it starts. That will probably be tomorrow.
