Thanks

Many people have their own methods, but when I stored my 350 for a winter (5 months) all i did was slap a battery tender on it and make sure it had fresh oil before the cover went on, full tank of gas as well. Didnt touch it til spring and it fired up no problems. Granted it was stored in a heated storage area, but besides making sure the fluid levels and tire pressure were fine, I had no issues afterwards. A few guys at work who store cars have used this method for many years without problems, they actually were against the driving it every 2 weeks deal.
