For those of you who have owned your GT350 for more than a year, what measures do you take to:
1) Take care of, preserve and protect your GT350 and
2) Are there any idiosyncrasies you do for whatever reason you’d like to pass on to new owners?
I’ll start. Mine's not my daily and spends a lot of time in storage due to my location and road salting.
1) After reading in this forum of people complaining, much to their surprise, their engines have been 4 or more quarts low, I always check my oil before I first start it up for the day. Just to make sure there’s oil in there.
2) Also, at least a couple of guys have said their GT350s have died while they were just idling. I make it a point never to have my GT350 just idle for prolonged periods. The most is to close my garage door after taking it out.
3) I redline it at least once when I take her out. Just seems like the right thing to do.
4) I plug in the trickle charger if I’m
not going to start it for a day or longer.
5) I avoid salt like the plague and use Sottozeros for storage and cool weather driving early in the Spring and late in the Fall.
Let me know if there’s other questions to ask.
