1995 Mustang GT2 has been sitting for about 4yrs now and I'm getting it back on the road. I need info on what has to done with the fuel thats already in the tank. Does it have to be drained or just add some dry gas or something? What other maintenance should I do to bring this bad boy back to life? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

It would be best to drain the fuel but depending on how much you might be able to just add new gas to it. If its anything over an 8th of a tank, I'd drain it and change the filter. Also change your oil. Oil viscosity can be near to none after sitting that long. Also make sure your other fluids look clean and fresh. Id recommend changing transmission and flushing the radiator. Besides that....check your tires and pressure and it should be good to go. Good luck.
