How to store for winter?
Aside from unhooking the battery what else should you do for winter storage in MI? Should the gas tank, radiator, and oil pan be full or empty? Should you start it up once a month or something? What do you do besides changing fluids when your ready to get it back out in spring?

gas tank should be full to the top to prevent water from getting in. all fluids should be full. start it up and let it fully warm once a week. you don't really need to disconnect the battery. just stick a trickle charger on it for a couple hours a week. that way you can leave you alarm on. also make sure the tires are pumped up good. as they will lower over time.

I'm storing mine and start it up once a week and all the fluids are full. Gas included. I've heard that if you don't start it up once an week the apex seals will dry up and you will be getting yourself involved in a costly engine rebuild.
