For Those Of Us that don't drive our 240's all year round.

Preparing you car for winter storage:

-Add Fuel Stabilizer.
-Fill up tank with gas to avoid condensation.
-Remove battery and store in warm place or disconnect the negative terminal.
-Inflate Tires to Max PSI or Put car on Jack stands to prevent flats.

Recommended:
-Put Silica Crystals in Cabin (to absorb moisture and keep out the musty smell away)
-Wash / Wax / Polish
-Change Oil if near 3000k miles on oil, or wait until you take it out of storage.
-Cover your car.

Taking out of Storage:
-Add Fuel Cleaner on first fill up.
-Change Oil if you didnt change before storing car.

Never snows in seattle...Lucky you guys. i dont get to drive my car on snow

 

I don't think lucky is the word, I don't want tp drive her in the snow, I liked MO where I drove her year round! I'm putting her away so she doesn't rust or get in bad shape.
