I'm going to start up a car that's been sitting in a dry garage for 21 years. I cracked the fuel tank plug and the gas obviously smelled like turpentine but wasn't gummy at all. The brakes worked fine, good pedal pressure but I'm a bit worried the calipers and slave may be dry rotted or with use will fail. I think I'll replace the brake slave and rebuild the calipers. I'm going to pull the radiator, have it checked and flushed. I'm going to rebuild the carb as well.
So all new fluids, brakes, grease the joints, new plugs and tune up and depending on the tank, flush it. Removing the tank requires engine removal...
Any other thoughts?
Thanks
