Hello,

You can buy a fuel stabilizer, Sta-bil, and add to the fuel tank. This will keep your fuel from gunking up in your fuel system. Start and run your bike, after adding the Sta-bil, and let it run for a few minutes to get the Sta-bil throughout the system.

Change the oil and filter, change your clutch and brake fluids and remove the battery from the bike.

Place the bike upon something to get the wheels off the ground and cover the bike with a tarp or bike cover.

Give your gear oil a look, but it should be OK for that length of time.

Some people drain the gas out of the system, but if your tank has any inside damage, it will begin to rust and you will have to clean the tank before running the bike.

I wrote a tip on what to do when a bike sits for an extended period of time. You can find the link here; Bike sitting for extended period

Hope this help. If you find this information useful, please vote on this post. Thank you.

Regards,

Oz

Generac 16kw generator starts on its own in automatic mode

Check the wiring from the utility through to the autostart control.; make sure all connections are solid and the wire itself is in good condition. New wire is no guarantee, several times I've had wire with a break somewhere in the reel. A non-contact voltage detector may helpful; start at the controller end, go to the other end of the wire, and see where you lose the voltage detect. It will detect voltage up to the break if you can keep the detector close enough to the wire.

I recently bought a 1964 Hermes Ambassador typewriter. The typewriter is in very good shape, -but the carriage is slid all the to right (as if ready to start typing)and will not move. It acts as if it is...

I worked on typewriters for many years. If the unit has been sitting for years, it is in need of a good cleaning when you depress a key, it activate a mechanism that rotates a pawl on a toothed rack under The carriage. Plus there is a final stop that stops the carriage from going to far too the right. Flip the unit up and push the carriage lightly and watch the mechanisms spray light lube and keep moving the mechanism it should loosen up. Depress space bar and gently pull the carriage to the left. You may also have lost the tension cord. That's a spring assisted coil that pulls the carriage. You have an old unit there. It was great in it's time.

What all should I replace while replacing the water Pump on my 2000 ford contour

That's a very good question...but I gather that this car has been taken care of and should be in very good shape and with economy the way it is..I see no reason to get a new car...My advice..Just get the water pump replaced and happy motoring....and don't let any mechanic try to sell you something that you don't need...I'm sure that you've heard the expression"If it ain't broke...don't fix it."..I hope this was heplful...PEACE.....

Wiper blade on my 98 C230 goes a quarter of the way up then stops and makes clicking noise for about 10 seconds. When I move it by hand it will go back into start position. Should I still try the lube...

sounds like the gears inside of the wiper mechanism have gone bad. there is a strip of gears in the shape of a half moon that the wiper motor rides on in order to move the wiper blade back and forth. When those gears strip out the wiper will only move a certain distance and then stop. One way to tell is if you can move the wiper arm by hand. When the gears are good the wiper arm should not move at all by hand.

I got a 1988 chevy s10 4x4 6cly 4.3 it ran last

Check the distributor, it's common for condensation to form under the distributor cap and the wires and Ignition control module may have gone bad due to corrosion. Start with that and keep me posted, be glad to help you get your S 10 running again. Good luck friend.
