Gotta fix my leaky oil cooler lines, and maybe a new set of tires otherwise I'm good.

I got some Blizzak WS80 in my OE tire size. I think I'll put them on my stock rims and use lightweights for my summers.

Completely unnecessary.

However when I had my carb'd sunny I had a coolant heater I installed.

Now that was the shit. Had it on a timer so 4 hours before I went to work it'd kick on. After 4 hours my mere 8 quarts of coolant was at 185f and I could turn my heater on without even starting the car.
>The heater was designed to heat 18qts to 180f
>Just turning the key to the on position would kick the electric fans on

I wouldn't bother with ~12f for a block heater though. Nice, but completely unnecessary.

Radiator cover is in the trunk(waiting for the cold weather) and winter tires are in the front part of the storage, with the snow shovel, waiting for the weather to drop below 0C/first snow. I have a good battery and oil(I run "winter oil" all year around). So in short,,, I´m ready.

>>15923844
It´s better to have the heater, but if you want wear out your engine to save little €, it´s not 100% nesessary. It´s the moment of starting that gets you. Cold oil doesn´t want to flow like warm one, so you´ll run the engine dry for a small while(same happens with warm oil too, but the difference is the amount of time).
