Start and Run Today
 
http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/4...icture034a.jpg
Start and run today! WHAT!
i have a routine that i have perfected and have developed
in keeping a car / truck / Bike alive. some of us have cars / trucks / bikes that
are NOT the daily driver... My Motorcycle is ridden ALL the time
and because of this my Modus operandi has allowed my occasional and
sometimes seldom used vehicles to become hard starting carb gummed up
spray some carb cleaner in the carb i really don't want to start problem kids!
But.....if you post a chalk or wax board that is always in view in the garage
something that you will see and occasionally look at... you will tend to say
something like HEY i have not started that thing in WHAT! and you will start
to take notice of the DOWN time and do something about it.
I run and or DRIVE everything at least once a Month and it is really the best
thing you can do for in In active Machine.
I have learned my lesson on this So.....go out and start it now
the same applies to your back up power generators power washers
or any other gas operated engine you have not run in awhile.......The End.

Yes, very good to run cars frequently:)

Good idea, Andy. I have a white dry-erase board in my garage which could be used for the same thing. Presently, I use the board to keep track as to whom I lend out my tools, and the occasion of when I borrow a tool from someone else.

On a side note, I love seeing pictures of your garage... :)
