Unhappy Storage Question

My RX7 has been in an unplanned storage for the past 12 months. Now I'm afraid to start it because I know fuel can gel if it sits too long. Anyone think there is a potential problem here after 12 mos.? It has been stored in a garage, if that matters. Anything else I need to be concerned with?

i'd drain the tank (drain plug conveniently located dead center of gas tank) if you did not add a fuel stabilizer.

just check the drain plug for leaks once you refill the tank

i'd the add some injector cleaner to the gas tank to help clean the gas lines & injectors of any old gas

check all belts & hoses for wear & dry rot

check the brakes before going like a bat out of hell down the road, that would not be the time to find out you master cylinder is shot..................
