    Car unused for several years
    Hi, I have a Suzuki WagonR which has remained totally unused for over 3 years. I guess this might have done damage to the car (like no lubrication/internal rubber valves hardened, battery dead, etc.). Could you please guide on what are the step's I should take to get the car up and running up with least risk of getting it damaged? Info on other pitfalls will also help.

    . Change engine oil and filter.

    . Replace battery and clean cable connections.

    . Siphon/pump out all of the old fuel in the gas tank and lines.

    After you get the car started, consider replacing all of the fluids--antifreeze, transmission fluid and filter, power steering, and brake fluid.
