Fuel stabilizer...

Either jack stands or more air in tires..

Disconnect battery...put inside if it could freeze

Cover/garage...

Change oil right before you store it...there is crap in old oil that is corrosive

Talk to her everyday, otherwise she'll be unhappy you're not driving her, go into depression, and blow an apex seal when you finally take her out of storage and start her


I think a few guys have mentioned to start the engine a few times during the storage period if you can, search though, loads of threads on this. Check the related threads down below too..
