Default A little random and off topic

Ok so after getting mt kota back on the road Im thinking off getting back to my bimmer. Its an 89 BMW 325IX for those of you that dont remember it lol.

Ok no it hasnt run in at LEAST 2 years. Now what should I do to it before I try turning it over to find the issue? Im thinking of checking all the fluids and a coworker suggested pulling the spark plugs and putting a little oil (marvel mystery oil maybe) in the cylinder.

Now before I actually run it it will get a proper tune up BUT right now I just want to start trouble shooting so all 3 of my cars will go

If you want to do it right change the oil,gas(flush the lines if possible)check plugs,wires ect. make sure no rodent has made a nest in the air box or around the exhaust. You could put a small amount of oil in each cylinder dont really have to but its up to you. Idk if these are fuel injected I would think so(dont know anything about them) if it is run some injector cleaner threw the gas tank. Thats all I can really think of for now im sure someone will give you more ideas.
