Default Storage

my 89 LX has been gararaged unregistered for nearly 12 years. When I baught the car it had 10 years of storage and I had to replace a rusted out tank fuel pump filter. The only other maintainence I have done is replace my plugs, air filter. Is it important that I change my differential fluid? and what other maintance does the car seak.

Before starting it up, replace all the fluids ! After changing the oil, remove the plugs and crank it over for awhile (short intervals) to get oil flow through the engine. It would probably to smart to change all the hoses, t-stat and belt. Good luck.
