3yrs Garaged Boxster. How to prep it for driving?

[seningen]

I would do the following:

Drain the gas tank. Put in new gas with gas cleaner.
Change the oil.

Pull each of the spark plugs out
when you do this -- there isn't an easy way to just pull off the rotor wire since each
plug has its own coil pak. Squirt in a little bit of WD 40 -- let sit overnight.
I've seen if a car has sat too long the gas turns into shalaque(sp?) and can cause a valve to stick.
The WD40 might help loosen anything up.

Hand turn the engine -- 24mm socket on the crank.
If you didn't pull the plugs above
-- or at least pull the fuel pump relay and dry fire it with the starter,
but only for a few seconds at a time.

You don't need to change the tires to get it started -- but probably a good idea
to see how old they are -- look for the build date -- up to 5 years is ok.
If the car doesn't feel right -- then your tires maybe out of round.

If you have starting problems -- inspect look for fuel pressure. Check fuel pump and maybe replace the fuel filter.

Once you have it running -- get it fully up to temp. Check for leaks, etc.

Hopefully you won't have any issues.
