Default Winterized the S!

Well ... finally put her up for storage today. The hibernation begins!

Up on QuickJacks, and wheels off. Greased all rubber fittings/trim with Shin-Etzu, oil changed, gas tank topped off, battery disconnected (with Battery Tender), exhaust stuffed with rags to prevent varmints from entering, placed rodent repellent in the trunk, cabin and engine compartment, and Damp-Rid in the cabin .... start the car every 3 weeks for 30 minutes.



Many thanks to Cory Barney for some maintenance I couldn't do.

Gloucester Point, Maine? I followed a similar regimen in the NE Ohio Snow Belt just south of the Great Lakes. Also cut the liability insurance as the car was out of service from November to April. Since the Lakes freeze the boats went in a barn at the fairgrounds for the same period.

Down south here in Chesterfield County Virginia winterization consists parking in the garage, roof up, and turning the key Off. Nice roof-down drive on New Year's Day is fairly common. Cover keeps most of the pollen off the car.
