Car\'s been sitting

So I've had the Viper parked in my heated garage now for 3 months :( But I'm headed to Willow Springs in a couple of weeks! Any suggestions on starting her up the first time?

Key In Ignition + Press Red Button = suggestion for starting Viper.

- put the battery charger on it overnight, the day before you go. ( if you dont have a tender on it )

- check floor underneath for leaks

I don't think there is any need to change any fluids other than the engine oil for winter storage and start-up procedures. Other then that just make sure you follow the maintenace schedule for changing other fluids such as tranny and brake etc.....

Engine oil breakdown is probably your worst enemy and should be changed over a LONG period of storage.
