Ok, here'* what im thinkin...
My car has been sittin for quite sometime, I have started it, and I have ran it around the block and down the street a few times just to get some movement you know? Gotta get my supercharger fix you know, WHHHHHIIIIIIIINNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE, MmMmm so nice haha BUT ANYWAYS, what Im lookin for is any ideas for things I should do for my car before I get her back on the road, few things I thought was to check my cabin filter, replace if necessary, replace my plugs, switch over to synthetic oil, and run sum SeaFoam thru her...anybody got any other things I should do ??
Thanx In Advance

Maserati? It'* only a state away... See you in a few hours! I got such a tingling sensation down my spine when I read Maserati that my neck hurts.
But really, that is awesome. I can't wait to see this. I would like to recommend you get together with some people to do a transmission filter change and fluid flush. Not that it would have anything to do with the sitting and not moving, but because you're looking for little things to do with the car, it can't hurt.

Do yourself a favor and check your vacuum lines. I've heard about issues with cracked vacuum lines on cars that have been sitting for a while... They're probably fine, but it doesn't hurt to check
