[QUOTE="FordPrefect, post: 20649, member: 1046"] OK, here's a chance for me to learn a bit more. I've read all the threads on winter storage (I hope) There are some great tips I picked up. Here are my plans / questions I'll put it away at the end of this month, oil has been changed and I'll check the tire pressure. What should I have the pressure at for winter storage? The max recommended for the tires? I bought Sta-Bil fuel stabilizer, not sure if I really need it but it was on sale. I cleaned and protected the top with RaggTopp, also the weatherstripping with Einszett Rubber Care Stick Gummi Pflege (mouthful and a half) I'll give the exterior and interior a good clean this weekend making sure everything is dry before putting it away. I'm also going to get a CTEK 3300 3.3A battery charger. [url=http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/browse/4/Auto/3/Batteries/BatteryChargers/PRDOVR~0111522P/CTEK+Multi-use+3300+3.3A+Battery+Charger.jsp?locale=en]CTEK Multi-use 3300 3.3A Battery Charger | Canadian Tire[/url] Is this OK? Also, I was thinking of starting the car about every two weeks, probably more for me than the car, let it run at a quick idle, if sunny put it in the driveway. Make sense or not? I've read a lot of pros and cons about tires flat spotting, I thought this was only a problem with bias tires? If anyone can enlighten me I'd appreciate it. As I have used up my quota of questions for this week i'll just say "thank you" and be on my way. [/QUOTE]
