Misfiring on start up Sign In

I have a 2001 Kia Spectra. It has been sitting for the past 3 yrs in my driveway. I might of put 1000 miles on it in the 3 yrs. I am trying to get in going for my daughter now. On start up it will misfire and shake like crazy until it warms up the check engine light will blink then go solid . Once its warm it drives perfect. I can reset the CE light and it will run great the rest of the day. Next morning back to hesitation on start up. I changed the plugs and thats it. The OBD results are 0300/0303/0304 0302 was there until i changed the plugs. I am thinking its fuel injector related but i am no expert. any suggestions?

If it has been sitting for 3 years, the fuel can't be any good. You may need to drain and clean the tank out.
