My car had been asleep in a moisture proof car bag since last Thanksgiving, and a Holley 750 sits on top of the engine along with a mechanical fuel pump. I just disable the ignition and crank it for about ten seconds before the "wake from the long winter's nap." That gets some
oil pressure up and fills the bowls. Then with the ignition re-enabled the car pretty much fired right up. Adjusting the tire pressures took longer than firing up the engine (I store the car over the winter with an additional 10-15 lbs. of air in them). Other than a fresh
oil change, Stabil, and extra air in the tires that's all I do before she goes in to hibernation each year. Really, that's all you need to do; no Battery Tender, no periodic start ups, nuthin. Now let's see if Rick L. jumps on me for not having an accusump....
