Winter storage ?
Does anyone know if i can take the battery out of my srt8 with push button start for the winter and have put it back some summer with no issues?

Yeah I've heard you want to drive a car at least once every couple weeks or it's real hard on the seals. True storage long term is going to be up on jackstands with no wheels on the car and in a climate controlled garage.

Go to Eastwood or Summit and get Battery Tender (I got the small waterproof one, so It can lay on the garage floor without fear of getting wet), fusible link, and battery disconnect. Had my battery disconected several times already. No issues. Blew the fusible link that keeps the clock and alarm going and had to crawl into the trunk to open it...Lol. Turning off the alarm blew the 5 amp fuse. I have since put a 15 amp fuse.

i dont think sitting will hurt the car, starting it in 14 degree weather will hurt it more then just letting it sit. But im going to take the batt out and store that with mty other ones in my basement. The garage gets really cold in the winter. but its dry:-)

Ahhh... good old Idaho. Nothing but sunshine.... in the summer.
4 feet of snow in November. 7 in the mountains.
Wouldn't have it any other way.
Dirt Bikes in the summer, snowmobilles in the winter.
