Winter storage
Hello all this is an off beat question about the correct way of putting your baby to sleep for the winter. I live in Ct and the car I just bought has never seen snow or salt. I was told that she was never driven in the rain but thats to hard to believe. anyway I own a boat and there is a laundry list of things i must do to it to be sure it will turn over in the spring. Whats the best way of storing a perfect original condition 1990 lx 5.0 vert. I have taken the battery out anything else?
Thanks for the help!!

RE: Winter storage
If you can, keep a trickle charge on the battery all winter long. I just got one for X-mas so thats what I'm going to do. That's all I've done. All I've done for winter is park it hot, and never start it all winter, ever. Now I'm going to keep a trickle charge on it since last year I used its battery in another vehicle. Come spring time, fire it up, warm her up good, take short trip, burn some carbon, then change the oil. While she's parked do some tedious work to it that you wouldn't want to do during spring/summer because you want to drive it instead.

RE: Winter storage
well if you have a heated garage..nothing other than fuel stab..if out side this is what I do
1. put on jack stands
2. cover wheels in plastic or remove
3. spray brakes with wd-40
4. put protection on all rubber ie tires,rubber seal etc
5. used a good cover evelution 4 is good
6. use dry paks and lay in seat to keep mildew and moisture out
7. fill up gas
8. use a trickle charger
9. check coolant
10. use a tarp under the car to keep down moisture
