HI all. Have not posted here for about two years. I am in Georgia and have a special 1981 BRAT that is my baby. I will be working in DC for a year and we are just taking our Forester for the year (will be taking METRO to work). What is the best way to prepare the BRAT for the year of no use?
Do I need to drain the gas or fill the tank and put in gas stabilizer?
Should I plug the exhaust?
Should I have a neighbor start it up once a month and let it idle or drive it around the block (we live on a big oval type subdivision)?
It does have pretty fresh antifreeze (changed last year).
