If your like me and stop driving your car at the first salt- on streets. Do you run your engine every couple of weeks as I do to keep oils and coolant circulating. I run mine 30 to 40 minutes with heater on-usually pulling out of garage on a dry day to rotate weight on tires. I use stabilizer in the gas (stabil) and I use full synthetic oil yearound. |

I don't....when I park my kat, I put a battery tender on it, cover and lock the garage. I don't even open the garage again until Spring. |

Winter storage. Shut the garage door at night and drive the Kat the next day. New Mexico passes on Winter. ------------------ More 'Pumpkin' photos . . . . .

We store both of my cats in the CarBags for the winter and put a Battery Tender on them. When we get them out in the Spring, they start right up! |

Ditto. The Battery Tender works great. You might consider investing in a Car Capsule/Car Jacket/Car Bag. My Kat comes out in the Spring just as great looking as it went in. Kevin ------------------ |

Here's a good one for ya. When I went to start her up in April after leaving her garaged all winter, I discovered I had left the key on!!!! (Yes, King of the Idiots!) Well naturally the battery was stone dead. But I jumped her, and after a few cranks....back to life. She's been running fine since @ 14V. My car's a 4-year old with the original battery. Go mopar! |

I store all the cars in the garage with the trickle chargers on them-never a problem. Isn't winter just lovely... One of these days I will build an addition to the house with a glass floor so I can watch TV and the cars at the same time... ------------------ |
