It's in for winter :)
Just put in my 95 LS in for winter earlier today. I used an oil stabilizer and a fuel stabilizer and let it run for about 1 hour before i put it in. Seeing that it's not stored in my house (appartment), I won't be able to visit it during its stay. I also disconnected the battery. When it comes out in spring, I'm planning to fix my rear quarter panel rust, slam it on Megans, and get a decent set of VIP style rims. That's gonna fetch easily around $5,000. Everyone from in and around Montreal knows how freakin' harsh our winters can be, the Lexus doesn't deserve that treatment. I have a winter beater, my Suzuki Esteem Wagon 1.8 with Vredestein ArcTrac's (studded) and it just doesn't get stuck Basically, the reason why I'm writing this is to find out what I could've done to store it in a more proper fashion next year. Any ideas?

Safe! I drained the old stuff out. Although the coolant mixture was pretty low, maybe about 25 percent, it still didn't freeze on me. I then filled it up with distilled water and ran it with the heater on and the thermostat removed, and drained that. Then I repeated the process... and drained that! Then I filled it up with a jug of Prestone extended life, warmed up the car, and shut her down. Ready for winter.

P.S.: It looks like we're having a "who can have the most thumb emoticons in one post" battle
