Hey guys I recently broke my leg, so I won't be driving my eg any time soon. Parked it in the garage and it will stay there for another couple of months, its already been like two and a half weeks. I heard that as long as you start it about once a month is should be okay, how does that sound?

 

sorry to hear man,yeah start it once a month and you should be ok.

 

every weekend. why not???
its your trophy right?

 

Yeah I'd like to take it for a drive everyday, but it's a damn pain getting in and out with my leg, yeah it's my right one, thanks for the replies guys, guess I gotta try and drive my gas guzzler V8..

 

^^ i agree with joey..
its your baby, and youd drive it everyday anyways..nothing wrong with keepin the juices flowin..

 

I'd do it once a week. Don't want that oil settlin in the oil pan for so long.

 

me myself i would just disconnect the battery and let it sit and just change the oil when u plan on driving it again

 

i would start everyday for a couple mins because i couldn't stand to be away from my car that long ;P

 

when my coupe sat for a few months I would start it once a week and run it for about ten minutes. I would also run the A/C for a while to keep the compressor lubricated.

sorry to hear about the leg.

 

well mine is up i'm gonna start it once a week with lots of stabil in it... and change the oil right away

 

if you dont disconnect the battery you can hook up a trickle charger on it... to keep it from dying...

 

put it on jacks, disconnect the battery, and drain the oil.

When you go to start it up, fill it up with fresh oil and crank it for about 30 seconds without the spark plugs out- to get oil circulated safely.

Put 4 oz Seafoam or whatever fuel stabilizer in your gas tank.
If your just going to start it and leave it cold regularly, thats going to cause sludge.
