Yep, the salt and sand used around here is one good reason not to winter-drive it. Another is that I don't have a block heater installed (do these motors even have frost plugs?) and I just don't see it starting at -35C without one and, if it does start, that's really, really hard on the engine. My third reason is that I live in the bad driver capital of the world and I just know that some idiot would slam into me because she misjudged the stopping distance on ice.

Thanks for the Lubro-Moly Jectron tip, Lil B. Was a ******************** to find the stuff, though. I have a 300 ml can. Should I add that to a full tank, half tank... what's the ideal concentration?
