  • Winter Storage

    My mother will be keeping her Camaro parked in a garage during the winter months; so what needs to be done before the car is kept in storage for about 3 months?
    I know a fuel stabilizer would be a good idea, to keep the fuel from going bad. What else should be done?

    Google "winter storage" car for plenty of ideas.

        If you have access to it, and are able to, start it once a week, let it warm up to full running temp and idle for 10 minutes.

        Make sure that the coolant/water mix is well balanced (IE not too much of one) so that idle coolant doesn't freeze up and crack the block.

        and if you're gonna be out of town, or not going to start it for long periods of time, make sure to disconnect the battery, so it doesn't kill itself sitting there.

          Oh, here you go BLLDOG:
          from the rules post:

          2. NO FLUFF POSTS. Again, let's save bandwidth here. Try to keep your posts on topic. No simple "lol" or anything related like that. There is no need for that garbage. And if you just have this compulsion to type in "do a search", you can AT LEAST link some threads that might help them. Or, just offer some advice. I try to post advice before locking, please do the same.
          now follow the rules or don't post.
