New to winter storage

Ok, so I now have a daily driver and the toy. First time for me having both.

 

Winter storage, I will be parking the toy in the garage. I assume I need to get a trickle charger and some fuel stabilizer.

 

Are both needed? Do I need to do anything else?

are you absolutely not going to move the car once it is stored? if so put it up on 4 jack stands so the tires don't flat spot and then over inflate the tires. also toss a few desiccant packs in the interior so the car doesn't smell like mildew next spring.

The only downside to this is you leave the suspension hanging for months. It's a trade off

Park it with a full tank and fuel stabilizer. And don't move it or start it till spring. Starting it "every so often" is actually bad for the engine, after about a week or so it's a dry start with basically no lubrication present.

 

As far as smell and keeping critters away, bounce sheets actually seem to work well.

I agree to this and include Irish Spring soap and include some mouse traps too.

Trickle charger is good, battery disconnect seems to work better. Full fuel tank,stabil,fresh oil change.
