Winter storage advice

Winter is approaching and I will be keeping my 964 off the road for the winter months. Research suggests I should prepare the car and do the following:

Change the oil if not changed recently
Fill fuel tank
Add fuel stabiliser
Over pressure tyres or put car on tyre cushions
Connect battery to battery conditioner
Ensure car is clean and dry

The questions I have are:

Is there a better fuel stabiliser brand over the others?
Is over inflating the tyres 'good enough' and if so what PSI is recommend?
Should one start the car and let it get up to temperature while in storage or not? If starting up is advised, how often?

Have I missed anything else, particularly 911 specific ?

Many thanks.
 
No need for fuel stabiliser with modern fuel for a short 6 month layup.

Get some mice / rat traps laid down and your sorted :thumb:
