Questions for long term storage of my BA Falcon
|
|
Hey all.
I have had a Santa Fe since last April so "Henry" had been put in mothballs. Infact apart from moving him today to get to the back of the garage, he's been unused and attached to a battery charger. He fired straight up!
His not for sale and I want to store him until he is able to be put on club registration in around 5 years. I've thought about this and want people's thoughts.
Trust option is simply keep him registered and drive it every few months down the freeway. Keep tank full and add fuel stabiliser. That's $850 rego plus around $350 insurance.
Next option is to completely store him long term.
I'm thinking flush coolant, siphone the fuel tank completely. Maybe take fuel pump relay and and run it dry. Chock the wheels and leave the handbrake off in neutral. Take rego and insurance off. He's in the garage and it's always dry, just dusty.
LPG doesn't go off so that's all good.
Then I figured when the time came, full up with fuel and away we go..... Maybe!
Does this sound ok?
