172 ph1, VW T4
I am probably going to not use my 172 for the next few years so I want to store it it the meantime. I don't want to sell it and since it is in the Czech Republic there are no monthly costs, no insurance etc if it is just in the garage (and I have that too). I am now living in rural Portugal and the quality of their roads doesn't go well with the Clio
What I would want to know is the right way to store.
I will have the car in a fairly dry garage, will get a cover for it and fill the exhaust and air intake.
Should I fill it up with gas or leave it as empty as possible?
Should I change the oil or just put in new oil when I want to start it again?
Obviously will disconnect battery, I know about the handbrake.
Should I change brake fluid?
Anything else?
Thanks!
Matt
