    Mines in a garage for the winter I just park it with a full tank and start it up every Sunday and let it warm up to operating temp and every 2 weeks I move it forward or backward to a different spot on the tires to avoid flat spots. Been doing it for a long time now no issues and I drive a vr4 their just a problem child to begin with.

    I've never heard of a storage fuel additive, but that's something I'll definitely try. I always leave my gas tank low when I store my truck (80s carbed v8) so I can add fresh gas in the spring because it doesn't like to start on gas that's been sitting for the winter, but that might allow me to leave it full and not have to worry about fuel system corrosion

  • @luluono89
    @luluono89 4 года назад +1

    For the tires I would inflate them to the maximum rated pressure of the tires, not the max driving pressure that is on the sticker in the door sticker. that would help keep the tires from forming flat spots, just to remember to get them back to the correct pressure before driving off. I would check the tires as the engine would warm up for the first time after long storage.

    You need to put some salt and pepper everywhere on your car so it gets seasoned while you are storing it. After you let it sit there for the winter your car is going to be nice and rusty.

    Never store your car for longer than a month unless you are rich.
    Drive your "toy car" every weekend or every.other weekend.
    If you CAN'T do this....then you should sell the cars you can't drive and save the rest of the money for rainy day.
    If you live in the suburbs and married with children then your "toy car" days are over and you should be putting EVERY single dollar into your family and not spend on your cars.
    2nd 3rd 4rth and 5th cars are for RICH people or people who have high incomes, and no kids.
