Re: She's been in hibernation

Did your dad use Sta-bil during the hibernation time. Was this car started every couple of months or driven during that time?
Open the gas filler lid and see if you can get a sniff of the gas that's in the tank, if it smells anything other than the usual gas odor, it needs drained.
You'll need a lift, to raise the car high enough to access the bottom of the car. Look for the hose that exits the tank, that connects to the fuel pump.
Make sure that you have a container that can hold the gas that will be drained from the tank, then disconnect the hose.
Good Luck....
