If the tires are to he out of service for any length of time, they should he
removed from the wheels. The inner tubes should be put in the casing with
a small amount of air pressure and the tires stored in some cool, dark place,
preferably where there is a slight amount of moisture, since, if they become
too dry, the rubber will harden and lose its elasticity. It is a good idea to wrap
tires with cloth to protect them from heat.
Remove all dust from upholstery, wash body clean, put the windows or the
top up and cover the car with heavy sheetings or a paper cover especially
made for the purpose.
When putting the engine back into service again, remove the spark plugs,
inject a small quantity of oil into each cylinder, crank the engine by hand for a
few seconds, replace the plugs, turn the ignition "on" and, after the engine has
been started on its own power, run slowly for a few minutes.
