bringing a car back to life after 1 year of sitting
Just wondering what I'll need to do once I get back home. It will have been at least a year (it may even be another year) but I'll be coming back home to fire her up. Turbo was left on and the battery was disconnected and the car was raised. Oil was left in the car and some fuel stabilizer was thrown into it with about less than a 1/4 tank of gas.
When I get home, what will I need to do to start her up? I'm assuming, throw some oil in and disconnect the plugs and crank it over so the oil can circulate? Also, what will I need to do about the fuel? WIll it be all dried up or something? if it is, can I simply just add fresh fuel and crank her over?
It's an h22a1 with a t3/t04e turbo on dsm 450's with uberdata if that makes any difference.

you should have a drain plug in the tank, my car ran fine on old gas with stabilizer, but if you feel gun shy, drain it. as for the oil, change it, crank it till the oil light goes out. then hook up the ignition and fire it up.
