Sat for a year, anything needed?
My 94 Civic LX, was pretty much sitting for about a year.. i ran it probably once a month at times.. just to drive it around my yard for like a minute.. Anything i should really do? I have a oil change in the near future.. but... what else?

I would put some dry gas in the tank and check air pressure in the tires. Possibly clean the battery terminals and charge the battery.

Change oil immediately, probably has some water in it. Expect trouble from the brakes. After driving a couple of times, check the rotors for the "ring of rust syndrome" and replace pads and rotors if the pads did not scrub all the rust off of the rotor where they touch.
