Buying 86 arrera that was sitting 7yr

[Pakalika]

Need to know the gotchas on a Carrera I am planning to buy that sat around for 7yrs. Driven only occasionally. I will have it PPI but what should I expect and look for?

Of course I could beat a dead horse and say "use the search feature" but that would be rude...!
Anyway, for what I have read here and on other forums dealing with vehicles that sit for a long time here are the highlights:

Drain all fuel and clean out tank
replace oil and filter, transmission fluid
clean/replace air filter
Clean/replace spark plugs
you may need to pull and clean the injectors
of course you will need a newer battery and clean the terminals

That would be to get the engine started.

Then replace brake fluid/ and possibly flex lines, replace tires so you can be safe once you get the car on the road...

That should be enough to get your heart pumping... and then go down the slippery road of refreshing just about anything that is 24 years old!!!

Let us know the PPI results.
Can you post pictures of the car?
If the engine is actually running you will be ahead of the game.
You should add details on your profile, such as your location, and maybe a local member knows the car you are looking at or would be willing to take a look at it with you. You will find a wealth of knowledge on this forum!
