Re: Auto Storage
Fill the gas tank, add a fuel stabilizer. Change the oil and filter. I'm assuming this is a newer car but, if not, remove the spark plugs and put a few drops of oil in each well. Get a trickle battery charger for the battery -- do not just disconnect it but remove it from the car in case a leak develops. Top off all fluids.
The ideal thing to do when storing a car is to actually have someone drive it for about 10 minutes a month but I do understand your reluctance on this one. Next best is, as you said, the start up weekly. If you're going to be gone more than 3 months, then I'd suggest you find someone you trust to start it up for you.
Don't forget that your golf cart needs to have water checked at least monthly and it should be driven a little at least once a month.
