Glen; Download Continental's bulletin from their website. That should take care of the engine about as much as you can. As far as mice, put guards around the wheels, we like to use 18" (if it'll clear) flashing aluminum made into a circle so the critters cant get in. Use a large amount of Bounty dryer towels or whatever they're called . leave an open box in the cockpit and jam a few up in the wheel wells. Mice hate the smell. Good luck.
