Default storing a saturn

i"m gonna store my 96 saturn for about 3 month"s here"s
the steps i"m taking

-fill tank full & using {" stable fuel stabilizer" to keep gas fresh to eliminate
it from going bad & gunking fuel sytem}

- putting about 6-8 psi more air in tires

-changing oil & filter using penz 5w30 ultra synthetic { possibly adding a can of BG MOA }

-washing & and waxing it before storage

-will have dad start car and idle it with the occasional high rev or 2
for 15-20 minutes to keep battery alive

aside from all this is there any other tips from YOU ALL!...?

I'd leave your tire pressure at the recommended max for your make/model, and simply have your dad drive the car around for 45 minutes every ten days or so ..... my 2 cents worth

That"s my purpose of storing in a garage so road salt dont rust & eat things like brake lines, exhaust, inside door rocker panels.? you no
even though Saturns don"t rust from the outside the inside lower
rocker panels do.
