Hi guys looking for some info or tips, has anyone stored the s2000 away? (I guess someone has!!!) Is there anything to consider other than what I have here

Change engine oil,
Seal exhaust,
Seal air filter,
Wax oil underside,
Wd40 or equivalent engine (moving) parts,
Shinetsu rubbers,
Clean protect leather and interior,
Remove battery,
Clean protect soft top, wax car, and cover (hard top on)

It would be stored in garage that is not temperature controlled.

Thanks for any tips or advice.

 

If you're going to be storing the car without temperature control, then ventilation of the cabin is going to be important. Failing this, you're going to have damp and mould issues with the fluctuation of temps inside and out.

 

I'd leave the windows down a crack to allow a bit of air flow through the cabin

Put some fuel preserver in - there are two opposite schools of thought on this; run the tank as low as possible or fill it up completely - the filling school it up is to stop oxygen and moisture build up, the run it low means you can put some fresh fuel in before the first start.

Chandleries do marine fogging oil sprays that are designed to coat engines over winter. I disconnect the coil and fog some oil through the carb when cranking the engine to coat the valves and piston bores (easier than taking 8 spark plugs out and squirting in each cylinder)

 

How long for? You'll flatspot the tyres over time

I wouldnt wd40 anything, use a spray grease if its needed

 

Just fill the tank to the brim with super plus ( stops moisture forming in the tank ) and garage it. Start it once a month, get it up to temperature, use the AC to keep the cabin dry, roll it back and forward. Make sure its parked in gear with the handbrake off.

Drag it out in spring, check the tyre pressures and oil / coolant levels - go play.

 

You can get wee dollies to help prevent flatspots can't you?

 

Check geo bolts

 

If its put away dry certainly my car doesnt get corrosion even on the discs and my garage gets used as a gym

It does get heated though
