I have never seen the inside of my engine. And never will. Heck, I have never seen the outside of it!

I am 2 months into a 5-month winter storage right now. This is my 3rd Winter Hibernation. My car runs great. I park it in mid October, and don't touch it until March/April.

There have been many threads on this Forum about Winter Storage.

As for the rusty rotors, next time you wash the wheels, blow dry the rotors (and wheels and car) with your leaf blower. They stay pretty rust-free with this approach. Regardless, it is no big deal to have rust on the rotors. Rusty hats are a bigger issue.
