Hey Guys,
I put my car away for storage before winter and I have just got baack from New Zealand. I am hoping to get insurance put back on my car and it out of storage today. I was wondering what kind of things I should do?

Before I put it into storage:
The tank is completely full of gas and treatment.
The battery was pulled.
The exhaust was covered.
Protection from mice/rats.
Placed on jack stands.
Car cover.
Oil change.

Ok so now besides reversing those things. Should I change the oil again? or anything else you guys can think of?

I'd change the oil again. Just make sure you pull all the shit to keep mice and pests away out of the car

My name is Mike. I drive the Laser pictured. I also have a white Firebird Formula. I graduated from Grove with Josh in 2005. I guess I haven't met very many of the DSM guys yet. For some odd reason I've been going to 3/S events instead!

First thing you should do is drive over to my house and give me a ride.

Yes, do change the oil again. Even sitting unused in an engine oil additive packages break down.
