change all fluids, should pull plugs and prelube engine, drop of oil down each cylinder, pull the coil and crank engine to get oil pressure up before firing it up. Don't drive it until you've gone through the brakes. 9 years is long enough for a brake line to rot away. Should bleed brakes out to change old fluid anyhow. Gas tank may have also gunked up after that long. If you have the option, drop the tank, clean it, and change out fuel pump and filter.
