94 tegra has become a lawn ornament for a couple of months I was wondering what all should be done to it to get her running in good condition again. I know oil change as a start. Any suggestions for a good oil?

Mobil 1 or Pennzoil Platinum SAE 5W-30. Change the oil and filter (preferably Mobil 1 EP or Purolator PureOne) every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first.

These tips should help:

6000? I thought it was like a general rule to always do it at 3000? Bare with me I'm what u would call car retarded in case this is a stupid question.

I'm recommending full synthetic, not conventional, engine oil.

Try putting some fuel treatment in it and then filling the tank up and give it a tune up and change the oil
