winter storage
yea- already did forum search on subject, didn't find anything related.summer's over time to think about putting car away for winter( although i don't have a zed yet, wife has a 68 mustang) my bro built a garage( heated, for his two cars) and is letting me store vehicle.any tips on what to do and what not to do greatly appreciated.been asking knowledgeable car people for tips and getting conflicting advise,such as -change oil before put away or in the spring?-put on jack stands or not?-use fuel stabbleizer or leave tank 1/8 to 1/4 full and fill with new fuel in spring?-disconect or take out battery?-use a battery tender?-start car once every two weeks or so to lub engine?-park tires on carpet or wood?( cement floor) use moth ball for mice? for u lucky %astards in california florida and the desert quit grinnin this is mostly for us northerners, although your tips would be welcomed.
