Actually, the title is not quite right, but I couldn't think of a better one quickly!

What I was actually going to ask was:-

How long have you left your Haflinger between starts? I have just been on holiday for two weeks and it will only be the end of the third week before I can get an opportunity to run Lurch. Now I am not talking about specifically doing anything to lay the vehicle up for winter or because you are going to do extended rebuilds on it or anything, just everyday = haven't driven it for a while but I expect it to just start and drive type of time scale.

I suppose charging the battery in between is acceptable as they do die in various ways with out reason.

(and Lurch who has been left on his own for 2 weeks!)

I thought this how you laid Lurch up

Nah!, Lurch was drunk that day and fell over.... Lurch normally sleeps on four wheels on the driveway.

Hi John,

Given you have a battery cutout switch on yours you shouldn't bleed to much power from the battery, just normal discharge which if I remember correctly is about 5% a week.

If you wanted to be really cute you could put it up on axle stands.

Oh yeh, don't forget a warm blanket, hot water bottle and a mug of horlicks.
