Help storing car
Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on storing my car for the winter. I live in Canada get lots of snow. So I guess the only option is to store it in a garage, does it have to be heated.
Also , is there anything to be done to the car before storing.(take out batery)
Thanks for the help.

I live in Finland, and the winter in here is pretty nasty too ... I have a 87 RX7 and I store my car on a cold garage...
The things I do are the following:
1) Washed the car properly.
2) Take out the battery.
3) Leave the car on gear (to keep the car stationary) not on handbrake... To prevent the brakes rusting and locking...
4) I left a humidy absorber on the car... To suck the water out of the air...
5) A half tank of gas...
With these... My RX survived the last winter... I stayed stationary for 5 months... And on the spring it started on first try
