All sensible, thanks, although do things change with the addition of a battery minder and engine block heater?

Hi,

Not really. If you properly hibernate the Car in the Fall, there is simply no reason to start it during storage, no benefit is derived from it. Admittedly, many people find this hard - to refrain from playing with their Baby. But it's the Best thing to do for the Car, and the Anticipation makes Springtime so much sweeter...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

That is the very best reason not to start the car in the winter. Well put.
