WHo can help me flush/change everything that needs to be changed??

[Silentalero]

OK since I got the struts/springs coming and the projectors are done. I need to flush, change and swap everything I need to do because the car hasnt seen the light of day in over 2 years.

Here's what i figured already.

Oil Change
Flush trans fluid
Spark Plugs
fuel filter
probably bleed the brakes.


anything else?

[HazMatt24]

washer fluid, never underestimate that.

PS fluid
clean the air filter

[Silentalero]

air filter i got to put a new cone on since its a cai.

The only thing that scares me is i gotta drive with with the preosv mold on

[HazMatt24]

I can't believe that Marc didn't put it on the original list.

Marc if you plan on driving to ASS with the Ho, bring plenty of tools.
I hope you stored the car off of the tires otherwise you will be thumpity thump thump all the way to Lansing.

[HazMatt24]

check the air in the tires

[HazMatt24]

look the rubber under the hood over real good for cracks and what not.

I wanna drive it up there but i doubt it. Honestly with the car sitting around for 2 years I dont trust its mechical capability for that long of a trip. Ill see how she runs over the next 2 weeks and see by then. Most likely though I'm flying into canuckland and taking the bus there.

you free anytime? i can do the basic fluids but when it comes to fuel filter/spark plugs and what not, ive never done them and id hate to overlook somethin in the process.

unfortunatly no, the tires are at about 16psi but they have such a small sidewall, last time i had it stored away they tires were fine. If not im sposnored by continental and i'll just have them toss me a new set.

come on Mark, fuel filter is easy, just don't smoke while you do it

[Redog]

I would dump all the gas in the tank and fill up with fresh gas, unless you put Stab-le in or something like it before you parked it

[alerored04]

fuel filter and spark plugs are cake. It all should be easy, just time consuming.
Id probably double check the serpentine belt, just to make sure it didnt rot out and itll hold together for you. Umm, everything else i think was covered. You said you might bleed the brakes. I would if i had the time, just to be sure. Although no air should have been able to creep into the lines you never know. And like redog said unless you put stabil in the gas when you parked the car i would drain the tank. All the shit probably sank to the bottom, and the gas probably deteriorated to like 70 octane after two years sitting there.

[Silentalero]

well luckily the gas tank is suckin on fumes. The fuel filter honestly ive never touched it before so i unno, i figure its easy, just wanna make sure i dont miss anything.

unhook the hose on both sides, take off bracket, remove, put in new one and reverse the previous directions. Pretty straight forward stuff my man, even I can do this.

[Silentalero]

in that case its simple well im just waiting for the suspention now.

[billytheman1188]
