I am purchasing a 97 850R this weekend, any advice? 850 1997

pull the pollen filter under the passenger side firewall and see what kind of accumulation of crap is sitting on the A/C. I have seen several late 90s with significant rot from crud in there. Repairs can get up to $1-2K.
Have they used synthetic oil? pull and examine/sniff the tranny dipstick.
