Many motorists try in the winter do not operate their machines. Aggressive salt reagents on our roads erode the bottom of cars. And driving in icy conditions and snow drifts requires certain skills.
However, to the car for a few months of inactivity there were no failures, it is necessary to prepare for preservation. Otherwise, instead of a pleasant trip at the end of the winter season you expect, for example, repair of Mitsubishi Outlander. Let's look at an example of this car, you need to do to "preserve" the car for the winter.
Preparatory operations are fairly simple. We should start a car wash and dry it well. This also applies to the cabin, and a body and heads. Areas in which there is corrosion, you should clean up, processed by special means, paint. All bolted connections fluff grease. Car body cover bad wax preservative composition. But it is reasonable chrome rub swab dipped in liquid mineral oil.
Installing the Mitsubishi Outlander at the special stand will remove the load from the tires and suspension. Experts recommend also slightly lowered the tire pressure to reduce them.
Also, you should flush the cooling system, fan belts loosen, remove the air cleaner, used rags to plug up the muffler and an air nozzle carburetor. Such measures will save the power plant from internal corrosion, and the spring will not have to repair the engine Mitsubishi Outlander. But the oil into the cylinders can not fill. Their working surface is little rust.
Delayed brake can play a cruel joke. It is likely that the brake pads prirzhaveyut to the drums, and remove them in spring will be extremely difficult.
Better to remove the old battery, otherwise the electrolyte will freeze. It is quite another suitable battery can not touch, you just turn it off from the total electrical machines.
The lower ends of the shock absorber is reasonable to disconnect from the suspension, shock absorbers themselves as to compress to stem left in the body. But the car door tightly shut is not necessary. Otherwise deformed rubber seals.
As you can see, all work will take a little time, but the above measures will help avoid problems and expensive operation such as repairing Mitsubishi Outlander.
