Removed the car from storage. Everything seemed fine and the car started without issue. I let the car idle for 20 minutes then drove the car up & down the street, ~1 km and then parked it back in the garage. The wipers still need to be replaced with the better ones.

Engine Oil

Stored car for the winter in the garage. Changed the engine oil & filter, washed the car, added fuel stabilizer & filled the gas tank, pumped up the tires to 40 psi, placed a few moth balls inside the car & engine bay, placed the battery on a maintainer, installed old wiper blades (the good ones are with the other wiper blades) and put a cover on the car. When the car is removed from storage, the good wiper blades should be re-installed, the engine air filter should be cleaned and the serpentine belt, it’s tensioner & idlers should be replaced. The tensioner is beginning to be worn out.
