Starting after storage
My fb has been in a heated warehouse since october, I put some fuel stabilizer in the tank before I stored it, but I'm afraid it might not have been enough. If I pour three or four gallons of fresh gas in the tank when I go to get the car, should that help any issues I might have? I'm also bringing jumper cables because I forgot to disconnect the battery when I stored it. Anything else I should think about before I try and fire it up?

I always dry-crank my engine for 10+ sec before giving it fuel/spark so it will get some oil up inside where it needs to be. You'll need to disconnect fuel pump (harness connection under the rear LEFT storage box) and pull the coil wires.
I also change my fuel filter religiously every spring start up - has eliminated some really strange running issues! Fuel should be fine if you added stabilizer. recommend you store car with fuel tank ABSOLUTELY full to minimize air in tank = moisture = condensation = rust = plugged fuel system!
