A definitive winter storage thread?
Can anyone give me a few pointers? or even a list would do.
Things i found so far.....
Clean it down & ACF50 it.
Battery out & keep it optimised.
But i come across threads that say fill the tank to the brim/dont fill it. Dont occasionally start it. Oil down the spark plug holes/dont bother. Drain the old oil and fill it to the brim then change the oil again before you put it back on the road. Depends how long its off the road for etc. etc.
Can someone who is in the know, just list the right procedure/steps? It's being stored in a garage btw.
Ta.
