Hi, i own a 88 fox that has been idle for 7 years!
i've had it in the garage, outside on and off since 1995.
my question is, do i need to check anything if its only been idle for 7 years?
or do i need to run tests on it, change gas tank, fuel pumps, radiator, water pump, thermostat etc...?
Please help, what do i need to check on it? or what are the first things i need to change?
i want the car cause it only has 25K miles on it, i know the motor is in superb condition.

any help would be appreciated.

thx, tek

Change all liquid fluids, and the sparkplugs just to be sure.

ok.

should i clean the gas tank out?

You could, but checking the gas filter is probably enough.
Yous make sure you get all the water out of the tank.
