Living in Texas, it is easy to use the car year round. However, warming it up takes for ever. I am considering putting an on/off switch on my fans to help warm it up quicker. It was really cold this morning, almost freezing... Yesterday I changed my oil and put in Castroil GTX 20/50, and a bottle of Lucus. This morning when I tried to start the car, the engine that normally pops on in one turn spun round and round and wouldn't start. I let it sit for a second and then let it spin some more and it slowly putterd on. It was fine after that, but that is the first time I have seen it do that. I drive my car all year round but have learned to avoid wet days. Since I have about 7 vehicles to choose from I might as well spare it. After my experience on wet roads with this car, I would avoid icy situations at all costs. So I suppose that if I lived in a snowy area I would just garage the car for a few months. Drive some other kind of dissposable car in the winter, like a Vette. ;P - Videobob To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
