Default The big sleep

Well it's is almost time to put my beloved Crossfire away for the winter, do you guys recommend a fuel treatment like Staybil. ?
Cheers

I've been told that with premium fuel, there's no need to add Stabil. I don't listen to people who tell me that, though, because for the cost it's cheap insurance. It sure won't do any harm to have it. A full tank of gas with Stabi, a fresh oil change, check your antifreeze, tennis ***** in the tailpipes, a car cover and a battery tender are pretty much all you need to do.

My grand father always told me to throw some mothballs around the engine compartment and some up the exhaust for storage.
Take that for what it's worth ......

I use steel wool in my motorcycle's pipes. Mice won't chew it. I also stuff it in the air intakes. I found a huge nest in my air cleaner box in my Concours MC one spring, not pretty.
