Winter preparation...

Give your suggestions for winter preparations.

what do you do to assure your car gets throu winter fine while it is in storage.


1. put it on jack stands just enough so that full weight is not on shocks.
2. make sure i have good coolant in it.
3. drain oil.
4. remove batery and put it in the house
5. remove radio face plate that is lcd


Reason i leave coolant in it is so that it doesn't dry up and leave residue on water pump/radiator. While its wet it keeps all the minerals/residue in liquid form.
Coolant system is fully seald so it should be still there when you go to drain it.

Reason i drain oil is because it breaks down over time and it can clog and leave sludge in the botom of the oil pan.

batery/faceplate is due to cold. i don't want the batery to go dead and lcd to break due to cold.
