1. Install the Battery Disconnect Switch and Disconnect the Battery.
2. Fill the gas tank.
3. Make sure antifreeze is good for at least -15 deg F (3-1/2 balls floating).
4. Park the ZR-1s on floor mats to prevent condensation on a bare unheated concrete floor.
5. Use about 5 sheets of bounce poked into the Plenum Runners.
6. Use a Car Cover to keep the car clean which adds to the heating effect.
7. Do NOT start the car during the winter storage.
8.
Move to California for 4 months and Drive the CA ZR-1s.
I
Disconnect Battery Cables (Negative Cable on ZR1) when vehicles are sitting over a couple weeks. This includes ATVs, Tractors, Trucks, Cars and
they ALWAYS fire right up as if a NEW battery when the battery cables are reconnected.
CHARGE BATTERY BEFORE DISCONNECTING CABLES.
The Battery Disconnect Switch and Having an Operational Secondary Full Power Switch
Keep the fuel tank filled to the top to suppress water condensation.
I use NO SNAKE OIL treatments in gas/diesel tanks but
DO FILL FUEL TANKS before any over winter storage. I have noticed on carbureted ATVs that the jets
WILL GET GUMMED UP over a long period of sitting where the gas in the carburetor bowel is allowed to completely evaporate.
In cold climates make sure your coolant antifreeze (GREEN for LT5) is at proper concentration for coldest temperatures.
I do use
BOUNCE if for no other reason the interior is FRESH in spring.
Assisting BOUNCE make sure the ZR1 interior has NO access for mice and keep ZR1 covered so interior is DARK as mice look for lighted access points.
A moisture barrier will not stop a concrete floor from sweating. It will stop the mitigation of ground water through a slab if done correctly. Sweating is caused by a combination of concrete temperature and weather conditions. If the concrete is cold enough and the temperature and humidity high enough the slab will sweat, regardless of a barrier.
I use GETRUNG Flooring on Ebay.
