Be easy on the brakes for a little bit. Since it has been sitting for a ahwile the rotors could have pitting or rust on the rotors. Id just drive around the street and slowly apply the brakes. But the rotors may need to be replaced.

as far as carbon build up you local lube shop should be able to take care of that. You can do it yourself but they have it on an iv drip which is much more effective then stuffing a vaccumeline down in a can of carbon cleaner.

a full tune up is my reccomendation. engine flush, radiator flush, plugs and wires, cap, rotor, check your battery, clean things up under the hood. Just do everything in a full tune up and you should be good.

But be care full of what you buy to flush your motor out with. Their is a diffrence between an engine flush and engine strip be sure to get the flush.
