Ditto on what Gunter says, do what he is talking about. If you rush into getting it started, it will run poorly.

I had my '81 in my garage for about 2 years and the gas turned into something that smelled like paint thinnner. The fuel distributor piston was stuck from the old gasoline, and 3 fuel injectors were plugged.

Definitely get Wayne's 101 book, since it tells you how to fix the oil leaks. I fixed all of the leaks for very little money, just lots of my own labor.

You got a free car, but now you need to spend some time and money. Do it right and the car will run fine.
