Hi! I live in Canada and I'm stoked on finally being able to drive my Cammy more often than not!
My question is kind of opposite to this, basically I want to know how to keep my trusty little Altima going strong over the summer, as I won't be driving him as much, but it'd break my heart of something went wrong. Got me through the winter with no problems, and probably saved my life Basically I was thinking of oil change, good wash, coolant so far. I'm a bit new to the in and outs of cars, I just want to make sure he's still around when it gets cold again! |

1) The worst thing you can do to a stored car is start it up ever couple of weeks. Let it sit ! 2) I always change the oil and filter AFTER winter storage, not before. Again, just my opinion.

I read that carpet pads can absorb moisture and aren't recommended for storage in areas that aren't heated. Seems logical, though I'm not sure how much of a concern it really is. I used 1" insulation foam instead, thinking it would give a better thermal/moisture barrier and cushion to avoid flat spots - though that also seems to be a non-issue for newer tires.

Should windows be all the way up or cracked open for ventilation? The gas tank looks like its plastic. Is that just a plastic cover over a metal tank?
