I've been waiting for last few weeks to warm up but temps keep sitting at -10c to -17c.


What do you guys think? Would everything be ok?
yes…

uxchamp is infamous around these parts
Salt part hurts the most. I plan on a washing it right after. I just hate it that it's sitting there with old oil inside...

I'd hate new salt a lot more than old oil
It's not like the oil is degrading
