^^^ Like the Title Says..

Any Tricks, Tips Etc...

What to do? What Not to do?

 

Wash it and then use one of those cover thingys :bigok:

 

for how long and what weather conditions.

i think i remember reading under certain conditions you would want to drain all of the fluids, such as engine oil, tranny oil, gas...

then i also remember something about starting and driving the car every once in a while.

 

i am trying to figure out the same thing...

I need to store my car somewhere from june 25th till august 16th

going to europe for the summer

 

1. wash/wax if going under a car cover
2. replace the oil
3. flush the radiator, replace with new coolant
4. flush brake fluid/clutch fluid
5. full tank of gas w/ dry-gas additive
6. put car on jackstands, put something under wheels so shocks aren't fully extended -OR- since its only 1.5 months, i'm sure it'll be fine just sitting on the tires
7. disconnect negative battery cable
8. crack a window!

 

Thats like two months, big deal! Just cover it. I drove my AMG like once a month and sometimes once every 6 or so weeks. Started up like a champ. When I read the title I thought you ment 6-12 months

 

DTN94LS didn't say how long, so maybe he's gotta worry more than IntegraR.

Fresh fluids - put stabilizer in the gas (not dry-gas)

MICE! They'll shred your air filter & make a nest in there. So be careful where you pick as a storage place. They like to eat insulation off the wiring harness, too.

 

i thought i was gunna read like he had to deal with jail time or something lol just do as LT says and you will be fine... :P

 

thanks for all the advice guys

reason im storing it is because im going to jail for mu..... j/k

nah... its just too damn Expensive for me to have 2 cars on the go.. Gas/Insurance so it looks like im gonna drive the Cargo Van all summer long
