Everything....might as well as buy a new car. Let a GM car sit for 7months untouched? Your askin for it.

The car still runs...but not very far..
it'll start acting as if it wants to turn off and on..then finally cut out..then it'll start up later and do the same again..
Was thinking about buying it..pretty cheap..but i gotta get it checked first....

If you had an Auto X-Ray or something it's pretty neat to hook up to the car to see what codes are comming through. Auto-X never lies. Better check up than taking a car that's been sitting to the dealer. Probably the same $$$ at the end of the day.

Put a fuel pressure gage on it and try the same thing. chances are the pressure is heading south when the car shuts down.
