The Gauge works!

It works, but on cold days the engine does not get hot enough to move the needle in the gauge.... I trust my winter car, 104,000 kms and still runs great... Never had to walk because of a stall.... I am not going to run the rotary at -30C! No way!!! If you guys do it then I am sure you are one of those dog's owners that beat the dog because he is barking for food!!!! Poor 8, Poor dog! :D

So , I've had mine put away for about 3 weeks now. I had the tires overinflated, washed and waxed, cover on it, and sitting in the garage......then on the weekend, I just couldn't take it anymore. I can't not drive the car.

I'm getting winter tires and wheels installed today and will try to get it rust-proofed in the next few days. Just in time to drive it to Kingston (from Toronto) on the weekend to visit family for xmas.
