Default Re: winterizing virgin

I'm not planning to put mine on blocks, but I will likely start-up and move it a bit every month or so.

I recently changed the oil and filter, but in future years will likely change it just before storage.

And store with a full tank of gas. Opinions on using a fuel saver additive (like Sta-Bil)?

I'm planning to replace the fuel filter over the winter.

The battery concerns me most. I don't want to disconnect it, and I need my cheapo float-charger for elsewhere too. So starting to look at better ones, with pig-tail leads to attach permanently.

Already picked up a cheapo car cover (~$30) at WM. Car will be clean and very dry before storing.

And, of course, will check the antifreeze for low-temp capacity.
