Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Oil change after winter storage

[Luke Graves (buyer1]

The big "Duh" answer to this question is to live in an area where you don't
have to put your car away in the wintertime!!!

Subject: [Ferrari] Oil change after winter storage

Michael asks " is it really necessary. . .[to change to] new oil again in
the spring . . . that's what I was told to do."

Engine oils four main jobs are: 1)lubricate; 2)clean; 3)cool; and, 4)seal.
Drive it calmly up to 190 F or about 88 C for half an hour or so.  That will
burn off any accumulated moisture and start up fuel blow by.  Change oil if
you wish tho as Clyde sez - not necessary if synthetic.

BUT - what does the owners maintenance manual say?

Happy spring motoring Michael -
DOUG
