    Winterizing

    Hey all,

    I recently moved to Richmond and started going to VA Tech (We could have beat Auburn, I know) and I'm bringing my car back to school with me for the spring semester. Originally from South Florida, I have never had to deal with this white stuff I know I'll see soon.

    So here is my question: what can I do under the hood (and the rest of the car) to ensure I don't get stuck under a few feet of snow?

    Thanks.

        ya, that orange rainx de-icer is a godsend. get new blades too. oh, make sure all fluid levels are where they should be as well. no major engine overhauls are neccessary.

            checking the coolant in your radiator would be good as well. make sure it tests strong.
