Storing 12A

I have a race prepped 1985 12A, weber carb/racing beat exhaust, etc. I'm leaving for about 12 months and need to store the car. I'm new to Rotaries...what should I do to the car prior to storing (in Michigan)?

make sure all exhaust and intake opening are closed properly. With duct take or plastic plugs.

I just fired up my FB after 8 months of Canadian winter with ZERO issues

So I recommend THIS:

The only tweak I would suggest is have someone inside the car to shut it off if the fogging oil doesn't stall it.....my 12A is a champ - it wouldn't stall!

Get some marine fogging spray and that should keep you safe.
