to add some more...

drain gas tank. just siphon it out that will get most of it, it it low already and does not smell too bad you could just dilute it..maybe jack up rear drivers side to pile up gas close to filler if it needs draining. add 5 gallons of fresh and a can of dryer. disconnect gas feed at engine and put hose in a container. you could short out pump at fuesbox to power it or crank engine. b4 cranking engine remove plugs and squirt some light oil in the cylinders. make angle squirter out of flex straw. maybe some pb blaster as well to help carry the oil. i'd suggest changing the oil with a cheap oil and a quart of rislone or marvel before cranking as well. if the gear box has oil let it warm b4 changing, you will wnat to change the engine oil again as soon as it warms anyway, save your good oil for the second filling. so now you are ready to crank it over and flush the old gas out, you will still get some bad return line gas but no big deal. that is what the anti ice is for. crank a half gallon of gas through it. i'd suggest some marvel inthe gas tank too....b4 i get pilloried for snake oil it is just a light machine oil that does a good job of metal/metal lubing and burns ash free. the fuel pump is bound to be thankful for it.
ok so now you should crank until the oil pressure light goes off and then a little more. do all this with the PLUGS OUT. you have new plugs for it anyway....right, be sure to use anti size on them??? new ignition consumables all the way around would be par for the course. cap, rotor, plugs, wires...unless you know they are new. old wires absorb moisture over time. it may have to be warmed good b4 it starts to run correctly. you can get by with waiting on the anti freezew until you run it little while..i.e. you may have other coolant issues such as leaking hoses etc...no reason to waste antifreeze on it yet.

you will wnat to flush the brak system as well after get it home. you have abs so that is a little bigger job but not too bad.

clean and treat leather...
turn up apc, talk trash...'cuz no one has ever had a faster car....ever..
