change out the old fluid and fill with new fluids. and why full gas tank. because to prevent water vapor accumulated in the tank. or empty the gas tank.

ALSO!!! grab a bottle or 2 of Stabil, or Sta-bil, however its spelled. whatever the recommended amount is for your car...put in the gas tank along with a full tank of gas..run the car a little bit to get it in the injectors and what not...its used to prevent the gas from gumming up and going bad
