Freezing temps, heavy rain, and then two weeks in Hi led to the car sitting in the garage for about three weeks.

The Z51 started up after a bit of cranking, but then backfired several times once I got out of our drive and onto the road. A little more stumbling and coughing, but then she smoothed out..

Pulled to a stop to grab a cup, and when I went to start the car, the starter motor seemed to freeze. Did it twice, and now seems okay.

Now the car is sitting back in the garage as a cold, blowing rain scatters across the bay. Soon, we'll drive, I hope.

Always a good thing to keep the corvette happily in use. I got the all season tires so I can drive year round unless there is snow on the ground

I started mine yesterday. It sat (with tender) since early November. I normally start it more often but I'm recovering from broken leg (clutch side).
It fired up only slightly slower than normal. I made sure my last tank or two of gas last fall were e0. I'm wondering if you used e10 fuel that absorbs moisture.

I took mine out for a spin in the rain cause I hadn't driven it for a while. It's such a nice ride, I'm looking forward to nicer weather!

It's my daily here in the Tacoma area, except, as you said, with any snow or ice, than my lovely bride drives me to work in the Prius.....

Took mine out for a spin after letting it set for two months. Ran fine.

That is a good idea. Not so much a snow issue on the coast, but cold, VERY rainy, and then we were out of town for a couple of weeks....

I think ours is fine now....but she did not enjoy sitting-neither does our motorcycle!

near 60 here yesterday. Fired up the ray vert and ran all day with top down. Flawless, been sitting since the first ice, snow and salt in early Dec but had several heavy rains and the road was dry. Whoopie

I firmly believe all vehicles that were designed to be used, perform a whole lot better when they ARE used on a regular basis.

It sounds like your car missed you, Steve!

I have had no issues driving mine in the freezing temperatures and even in some snow. Does take a bit to warm up but she's been great.

Use a trickle charger when it sits for more than 2 weeks!
