Answer 1

11-B?

I forgot they changed the numbers and letters, I was 12-B.



Change the oil #1 oil has a 3 month life if you run the car or not.



I havr had my GTO in cold storage since 2000 U.S.A.R. so I have thought about this since I restored the GTO and put away.



The things like gas is a problem also, since you most likly didnt use a gas stablizer it's getting close to being very bad for your engine, use a good injector cleaner and fill up for 89.



The car should idle up to normal running temp, make sure nothing has eaten your hoses and or wrires by walking around the car while running looking for leaks, drive the car out and pump the breaks too make sure they work and that a calaper is not froze, you don't want to hurt anything or wreck.



Check for dry rot in your tires, 18 months is no big deal, but air pressure and all around safety should be checked before you drive her.



The auto trans has too get it's fluids moving so don't jump in and go, it's not military, and even tho the military makes us jump before we wake up we can get over it, the clutchs in your trans will not.



Warm the car up, at a stand still put the car into first 2nd third, R and park.



Then get the oil changed, Fill up with 93 and go have a beer.



Thanks for serving, America still cares.

My husband and that i have both been homeless or with a house yet too negative to purchase a lot nutrition (in spite of foodstamps) and we went to the nutrition banks for 'donated nutrition' ... maximum OF IT develop into not sturdy nutrition ... human beings provide 'previous' cans they ought to throw away, damaged (smashed) pasta, mixed dried beans that favor diverse quantities of soaking and cooking time ... even vegetables they don't favor to eat because they are wilted and dried out. when I provide to a foodbank (which we do oftentimes) i bypass to the shop and purchase NEW fundamentals ... bins of pasta (the superb they have, too), NEW cans of nutrition, sparkling flour, sparkling vegetables, canned meat and canned juices, infant nutrition in all sorts ... then I take it and drop it off with a 'i wish this enables' and a huge smile ... if I loiter round, I tell the those that we once were the position they are, and we've funds now, so we are only 'paying decrease back' what we were given ... and human beings postpone their heads and picture that they are purely 'down for awhile' quite of being 'down always' ... it truly is not selfish to feed someone who desires nutrition ... an previous man or woman, a worker, a mom, a father, a newborn ... human beings need to bypass to mattress FEELING finished AND understanding they'll GET finished the subsequent day, WEEK, MONTH, twelve months. Donate sturdy nutrition (no matter if it skill you ought to eat slightly a lot less for an afternoon or 2 a month) and the international will be a extra constructive position for all and sundry!

Answer 3

Change oil and filter. Check air filter . Maybe some small creatures moved in while you were gone. Fill it up with gas, that will help dilute the old gas in the car.

Check coolant level and brake fluid level. Check tire pressure and check tires for sidewall cracking. Tires may have flatspots. They will make a thumping noise if flatspotted.

Remove and clean battery connections. Replace wiper blades.

The rust that developed on your brake rotors will go away as son as you drive it.

Answer 4

ok my friend you need to change the oil, check tire presure, and inspect for dry rot, check air filter.



general PMCS, if you cant do it go to the auto shop on post they can guide you along and you can use their bay to do repairs, shud be reasonable and most places have tools you can use........

Answer 5

i agree with the first answer, also, you will want to check and replace any worn spark plugs, and change the fuel filter. a tranny/coolant flush wouldnt hurt either.
