Barb:
The old fuel needs removed and replaced. Also, give it a good check over. If it has set for 3 years, don't overlook the steel brake lines and fuel line. Also, check brakes, have the oil changed and have the trans checked for service. Finally make sure a mouse or something didn't build a nest in the air filter box.

Give it a good overall inspection.

Let me know if you have other questions.
