Dear list members,
  [due to my bad timeing in sending this similar letter the day before Thanks
Giveing I recieved only one response, so I will try again]
       My 87 Syncro w\108,000miles will be reluctently takeing residence in my
driveway until July while I am away, and some advice on how to prep it would
be greatly appreciated!!  I am sure this frame of questioning has come around
the list more than once, but I can not find any info in the archives.  I have
someone who is willing to start it up every week or 2 and drive it around a
little every once in a while, The oil has been changed and I added some fuel
stabilizer to the topped off tank.  Someone told me to spray WD40 on exposed
engine parts, exaust...???  -and- I am going to give her a fresh coat of wax.
I love my syncro very much and would like to help keep her in the best
condition possible while I am away.  Again any and all advice/comments would
be greatly appreciated!
Chris
1987 Syncro GL
