Winter Parking Preparations
Guest
Posts: n/a
I think I'm going to park the CJ7 for the winter but I'm wondering what
preparations I can make to help prevent any problems next spring. It gets
very cold here (-35C or -30F approx) and it will be parked outside on a
gravel driveway. It's pretty much stock with some growing amounts of body
rust (some all the way through).
Thanks!

Good antifreeze, full tank of gas with some gas line deicer in 'just
because', proper antifreeze through the windshield washer system and the
battery disconnected comes to mind.

no idea one way or the other ...

A partially full gas tank will produce condensation from moisture in the
air, which in turn can freeze.
