Hello folks, about to put her away for the winter and wanted to know if you have any tips. Unheated storage, but dry of course on a cement pad. Thanks for your help. Joe

...plenty of commercial dessicants out there

Clumping cat litter is a good dessicant.

Leave the oil in...spray in some engine storage spray if it's long term.

Stabil in a full tank is correct.

On the tires is Ok for short term...if you do use jackstands keep the suspension loaded.

The worst thing you can do for a car in winter storage is to start it and warm it up a couple of times a months all you accomplish is to create a lot of condensation in the crankcase and exhaust system

Calcium Chloride.....then you flush the liquid down the toilet and put in fresh granules.


I don't know how good this is for the enviroment...I'm for sure NOT going to try that on my septic system.
