need some input ?

Ok, my motor was rebuilt last year, i put about 3,000 miles on it since, took the twins off and hooked up my new R85, i figure im done with the car for the season until spring... Is it OK to let me car sit in the garage for the next 6 months or so with oil/fuel sitting... It's not gonna mess anything up just sitting is it ???

what should I do or will it be ok...

I would

1) put in fuel stabilizer, but IME a few months isn't necessary as long as you run the tank down and put in fresh stuff before going WOT.

2) give it a fresh oil change now.

3) pull the plugs, pour in a little MMO, and turn the engine over to lube the internals.

For more information, run a search on "long storage".
