Have a 87 TR that has been sitting in a heated garage for 6 years and has not been started. Car only has 16k miles on it and is completely stock. I know this thread is similar to the other guys thread about what to do to a car that has been sitting for awhile but my situation is a little bit different. Below is a list of stuff I am going to do to the car and I am open to any other input that others might have to get the car road worthy again.
Here's my list of things I am going to do:
1. Drain Coolant and replace
2. Drain oil, and do Richard Clark 20 qt. oil trick to oil the entire engine internals.
3. Remove powermaster and have it rebuilt & tested at RCs.
4. Flush Brake fluid
5. Drain/fill trans fluid and change filter
6. Drain/fill gas tank - might have to replace the pump and sending unit depending on condition. Previous owner did fill tank with race gas, not sure if that makes a difference or not, any insight?
7. Change fuel filter
Am I missing anything?
Thanks,
B-
