I have heard this many times before.
What all will be damaged by letting a car set to long ?
I try to drive my car at least two or three miles every two weeks or so.
Every three months or so, I run down to Houston to visit my folks - a 280 mile round trip.
This last trip, I had a flat ( valve stem leak ) on one tire and another of the tires developed a split at the valve stem. I had the valve stem replaced.
Could this sort of thing be due to having the car set too long ?
