I'd like to try to resurrect it but am not sure whether there's a risk of melting the engine since it's so long since it's been started. Anyone have any advice about how to safely wake a car from such lengthy hibernation?

Thought it might be my imagination. Now black smoke aplenty is coming out the back. I noticed that the car seems to struggle during some moments for no obvious reason and more smoke choices out at that moment. Could it just be air filters or something? Haven't changed them for ages. I think coolant is leaking too as I need to fill it regularly, don't know if that's related. Is it bye bye car time or just bye bye big chunk of money?
