190e 2.3 16v idle issue

I don't think this car has run in forever, I drained the gas tank, and put injector cleaner and 100 octane fuel in it. I drove it about 5 miles, car still wont idle. Any suggestions? I was thinking I should clean the injectors off the car.

Check your O2 sensor voltage and also trouble shoot the idle air mechanism. I had that problem on mine and I finally got rid of the car because the ECU harness went bad.
