I also heard that a bar of irish spring will keep rodents out and help out with the musty smell. I am not sure what to do with the gas situation, and even on the nice days i dont want the salt or "brine" they spray on the roads (in ohio) on my car. The brine seems to "fuse" the rims and they are a beast to take off. I am most likely going to sew a couple sheets together for the car to cover it...i know i know its the cheap way out but thats just me.
Use Stabil as directed in the gas tank. I have seen many motorcycles suffer from people not using this stuff. The gas turns to jelly in the fuel lines and fuel injectors without it. You can get enough of it to treat a couole of tankfuls for about five dollars. I have been using it in my motorcycles for 30 years. Thanks for the tip about the Irish spring, I will try it out.
