Storing your track car over the winter...

Alright, so winter is right around the corner, here in NH, and it's just about time to put the Evo away. It will be garaged, and put on jack stands.

Someone, who stores their car for the winter, want to give me the run down?

Change the oil right before storage? Drain the rest of the VP110? Top off the 110? Disconnect the battery? Start it up every couple days?

Appreciate it!

Drain fuel if you're using 110! It should say on the can NOT to leave it in the tank ever, never! Change the oil, run it a few mins, don't forget to start it once a week to keep the cylinders/bearing surfaces from surface rusting. If you have water in the radiator, you might want to mix in some Antifreeze (If your garage freezes.)

That's about what I know, hope it helps, and hopefully others add... good question!
