Ok so next week i am heading home to get my focus.

My question is this. What kinds of things must i look at for (car wise/mechanically) ...

1) drving from Toronto to Saskatoon
2) a car that has been sitting in storage for almost a year and a half

I know im gonna have to get all the fluids changed, filters, probly a battery, maybe spark plugs...

i just want ot get it running like it used to, and able to kake the drive out to sask...

and tips or concerns i should be looking at??
you don't need a new battery just charge it get a charger....
Did you use any kind of gas treatment before you put it away? Of course you did, but if you didnt, it would be pretty stale by now.. I guess you just have to burn through it though and put fresh gas into the mix.
