Car sitting for 2 weeks, any prep needed?

[thebutcher37]

Shit I leave my car for a month sometimes without driving it, leave the keys in it and the windows down too. I've only driven the Vette twice in the last two years. First time I had to fix a cork gasket on the fuel pump/filter, this last time I didn't have to do anything but charge the battery for a bit.

Two weeks, no worries.

Woah windows down keys in... Ill be coming up to Sacramento to barrow one of those beauties...
I kid... I kid.

Wow that is a beautiful Vette! And im sorry for your loss, im sure that car brings back some great memories!

Ditto. Nice to hear the beauty holds some strong sentimental value.



Oh and to the OP, Like everyone said it shouldn't be a problem, disconnect battery, roll up windows, sunshade it, cover it, lock it... Come back and enjoy after 2 weeks.

Seriously a beautiful Vette! I'd keep it in a trailer as well. Thanks for the pics, new desktop material.

Truck sat for a year, put a new battery in and fired right up.

For some bizarre reason if my car sits for any longer than a week mice immediately move in. I had it IN my mom's garage while I was waiting to get some plugs and wires for it. Once I started it up a huge mouse nest shot outta the muffler.

Any good tricks to keep these fuckers out?

bro, my eta sat for 3 years before I put gas in it and drove it. You will probably be fine with 2 weeks.

I would be worried about the gas in the tank.Drain it and put fresh in it before you start running it.Old gas can ruin an engine. Trust me...

My 6 sat for 13 years. Fired it up last night. Now, driving it....that's a totally different story.
