Sorry to hear about the rain. Maybe set up a chair in the garage later, crack open a cold beverage of your choice, and stare at your beautiful Z.
pretty much what I do every chance I get!

Man, I love getting 310 miles out of a $108 oil change. Next time I put the Z up for the winter I'm not going to spring for ester oil. Usually I get it out for a few solid weeks before 1st of may when I change it again but not this year.

But my car's on the road with a fresh oil change, even got to drive it to work today. Hopefully I'll even see 5 digits on the odometer by the end of summer.

Not really gonna happen, but a guy can dream.

Hope everyone had a great weekend and is having a great week so far...

wow, you dont really need to change the oil before storage if it's only for a couple of months, imho. i only change it once in the Spring. my car has 12K miles, 4yrs old this summer.

have fun motoring!

Nissan says 6 months or 3750 miles... They're the ones who pay for my engine if it fails (which, I'm sure you and I both know, would have very little to do with me leaving my oil in for longer than 6 months since the low mileage isn't from short trips) so I change it in Nov. when I put it up for storage and then I usually am able to get it out mid-March or so, but this year we got some freezing rain/ice really late in the winter and they threw down about 1.5" of road salt everywhere, then it didn't rain for 2 weeks.

But yeah outside of tornadoes and stuff like that it should be mainly good driving weather from now until November!
