Im going to park it in my parents garage for about 6 months. Is there anything special I need to do? Does it need maintenance or to be driven around on a weekly or monthly basis?

 

you should ask your parents to start her up every week or so....

you can also get some kind of non operating insurance or something... got this info from the homies, but don't kno how or where to get it...

yeah, make sure they wash it every week, and sing to it every nite
jk, umm, my guess is that it wouldn't hurt ti have somone drive it around the block, its basically like stretching, your bodys gotta stretch, and so do those engine parts

 

Starting up would be fine but I dunno driving it around. My pops prob expletive up my car. Knowing him he'll probably turn the car on, leave the garage door open to air out the fumes, go do something else, and then my teg will be gone.


yo ac2 you ever been on a carrier? use the SPN-46? thats my gear

yeah... don't let the gas settle.

 

you could put some sort of Fuel Stablizer - like 2 bucks from walmart - just to make sure you're fuel is fine, but 6 months isnt that long.. once you hit the years..
if you're parents can start it up once every 2 weeks or so, that will help you. other than that, thats about it if it were going to be longer, id put it on bricks, but, again 6 months isnt bad

 

Fuel stabalizer? Never heard of it? What happens when the gas settles? Should I use almost all of the fuel before I leave?

 

Put a product in called STABIL. it doesnt matter how much gas you have in ur car. This stuff works amazing. It has a directions on the bottle on how much to put on for how many gallons is in ur tank.

My car has been sitting since september and all i did was add stabil and took out the battery. Put the battery on a bench in the basement and you will be fine. Thats all i did and im sure it will be fine when i start it again in May!!! I have no worries at all.

"DONT WORRY ABOUT IT" and god speed soldier Good man

 

You can do that or drain all fluids. But I think having your parent start once a week is your best bet. I hered that fuel stabalizer is bad on your injectors...
