Need advice for starting older car, not driven.

Don't tow an automatic trans car.

Change the oil before trying to start it.

Fresh gas. Syphon out the old gas first.

Check the coolant level, top up with water for now.

Check trans oil level.

Power steering oil level.

Look around under hood for anything unusual or disconnected.

Have a knowledgable friend or mechanic help you, if you are unsure.
