I would not change any part of my advice. However, I would advise not starting it just for the sake of starting it over the winter. Put some fuel stabilizer in it and put a trickle charger on it and forget it until the weather warms up. |

Is the amount of engine oil 8 quarts?
I read about people putting in 7.5 and some 8.5!

I buy 2 5 quart containers, prefill the filter before installing and start with 7 quarts in the engine, run the engine briefly to circulate the oil, turn off the engine, top off until at the full mark on the dipstick. I don't really pay attention to how much it actually ends up being. My guess would be about 8 quarts. |

@ Vegas bound
After you told me that alot of list didnt need doing now, I relooked at all my jobs. Lots of the jobs can be done much later! Thanks, you saved me a lot of money. I do have one question though. I dont drive my car so far. It would take another ten years before most of the fluids need changing! That means most of the oils have been there for 20 years! Would it be beneficial to change the oils and fluids say in a few years?

All service intervals are based on miles or time, whichever comes first. Follow the recommendations in your owner's manual.

Thanks again.
I read that, but most are based on miles and it doesn’t say about time.

And I would expect 20 years is too long

There are only 2 with on miles/kms and no time recommendation. And that’s rear axle and transmission.
