I don't have a TII yet, but I'm switching positions in the spring and will have a company car, so I'm planning on selling the GXL and grabbing a Turbo II to tool around with during the summer season and get into AutoX, and storing it during the winter.

I don't know if there's anything special I really need to do. It'll be in a garage during the winter, and I was just thinking of keeping only a small amount of gas in the tank with Sta-bil added, and starting for 15 minutes every month or so to keep the seals from locking up.

 

Search Aaron Cake's Winter Storage technique.

 

Yeah, search doesn't work too well for me, I usually get stupid results. I'll check his site in a minute though.

 

I always store my car from our nasty Canadian winters, so the car is out of commission for a good 5-6 months

I add fuel stabilizer and make sure not to pull the handbrake.

I never start the car. Starting a car regularly and just letting it idle up to temperature in the cold is not a good idea.

Instead, I fog the engine with Marine Fogging Oil. I make sure to get that stuff into all of the rotor faces (spray, turn engine, spray more). Then I leave it until spring time.

 

2nd hit on a search for "storage" in the 2nd gen forum under the user name "Aaron Cake":

I forgot to mention in that post that you should also use a fuel stabilizer. I like Sta-Bil. Mix it in while you are doing your fogging so it circulates through the system a few times.

 

Thanks bro, looks like alot of fun. Should a guy but some oil on the hatch and door seals as well? I know my passenger one sticks like a **** whenever I open it since I never have passengers.

 

if I lived in cali I would let you store it at my house.....ill take care of it......lol
