rx8 will be sitting in the garage for 6months ??
my rx8 will be sitting in the garage for 6month due to lost of license what tips do u guys recomend , etc do i start it up every day , take it for a drive everyday ?? thanks
|
if you are gonna drive it everyday, then whats the point of having it sit. jk :)
|
You have no license so driving shouldnt be one of your options ;)
Seriously, everyday isnt necessary but I would attempt to take it for a drive once a week. Cheers Andrew |
I would go to walmart and buy a battery maintainer they are around 25 bucks and it keeps your battery charged and will not over charge it
|
When I ended up in the same situation I just parked the car with the tires off the ground and suspension still compressed, changed the oil and filter, removed the battery and put it on a wooden shelf in my basement. Every month or so I hooked up the battery tender that invasion mentioned for a few hours. When I was ready to drive the car again everthing was fine.
|
also remember your gas *may* go bad in 6 months time.
|
I topped mine off with Premium and it was fine.
|
You can use n addative like Gas stable.
|
That stuff(Sta-Bil) is good for two-stroke engines............wait a minute.........:lol2:
|
Sorry for being off topic but didn't you recently do a thread on smb exhaust and that you were thinking of getting one? Sorry to hear about license.. I lost mine on my p plates for 9 months,not good.
|
just wondering...but what exactly did you do to get your license suspended for 6 months?
|
6 months isn't long though. Just keep it in the garage and get someone else to drive it every now and again.
|
i dont condone this, but i have had my liscense suspended for one year and i still drove around until it was reinstated. as long as you dont make a mistake in front of a cop or someone who knows you and has a grudge then dont worry about it. drive it, but be careful....
that is if you need a car to get to work... and as the cold weather comes.... everyone will need a car |
sell it you don't deserve it.
|
Disconnect the battery.
Put it on jack stands. Crack the windows for ventilation. Put a car cover on it. I would start it every two months. |
I've read that parking the car on a double-thick layer of carpeting and rolling it a few inches every couple of weeks will prevent the flat spots on tires that long-term parking on concrete can cause. This eliminates the need for jack-stands and is a heckuva lot easier.
Wondering if anybody's tried it? |

Here's a suggestion...don't drive if you don't have a license!
I just got back from 3 months in Iraq, and I had my wife start it once a week. She never drove it, and it started up just fine and runs great. I wouldn't think that another 3 months would be much different. |

no heres what you should do:
1) drive your car wherever you want, whenever you want. 2) be extra careful not to break the law so that you don't get arrested :) 3) go to one of Hannah Harper's signing events or to www.hannahharper.com Have a good day! |
