My car has been sitting for 10days out in the cold without being started but it has more then a half tank in it 93 octane will it be ok or should i throw a bottle of heet or stp in the tank to make sure all the moisture comes out? Do those fuel additives really work i mean which ones are the best to use?
My motor is rebuilt with 33k miles on it so the previous owner says but i think mobil 1 syn 10w-30 should be fine yr round i was thinkin to go thicker in summer time but people said cause of the low mileage theres no reason to go any heavier then 10w-30? I wanted to bump it up to 15w-50 mobil 1 syn in summer time at least since i do get on it but im not running a big turbo just a big 16g but with high boost for now and the motor is pretty much stock. The previous owner ran 5w-30 i guess cause the motor was rebuilt there was no need for such thick oil he said and i noticed when i switched to thicker like 10w-30 i got longer tick at startup so i dunno? As for now though its winter time so i wanna put the best in it for good startups but really good protection as i do go get it on still in winter.
Is mobil 1 syn 10w-30 good enough for winter time like even under 20f? My car fires up right away but i wanna be sure that the oil is flowing fast enough and i get the best protection cause temps do drop out here sometimes below zero.
What about tire pressure for awd with all season tires in winter time 34psi front and 32psi rear? My car door label says 32front 29rear but thats what stock calls for with 16" wheels but i now have 17" wheels and tire size is 225/45-17.
