Default Prepping for storage

Hi All,

I am planning to store my 05 mustang during the winter, I will not be dirving it at all for about 4-5 months. Some advice I have received so far..

1. Fill up the tank and add Staybil
2. Run the car in the garage every 2-3 weeks for 5-10 minutes in idle

Any other suggestions?

Tim

My uncle used to store his 99' Cobra during winter time in Michigan. Having a heated storage helps out a lot

The best advice that I can give you is keep the tank full and put some staybil in her. I also use a battery tender when I am not driving it.
