Porsche Winter Storage

check for spark to the plugs and check for fuel at the fuel rail

Have system pressure tested. You may have too much water in the radiator to be put in storage.

this should be changed at about 100,000 kil(60,000 miles) to lessen the chance of engine damage,each manufacture has there own requirements but this is a rule of thumb,as the belt takes alot of abuse starting and stopping the motor and spinning at 3,000 rpm`s or more constantly.

if you drive alot every 60-75,000 if not driving much about every 2 years.

Take like a piece of cardboard in winter and block off about half the radiator put the cardboard in front of the radiator.

Check by your oil dipstick, in front of distributor , there should be a temperature switch threaded into cylinder head that controls cooling fan.

Have you checked the fluid level? perhaps the filter is plugged...if mileage is over 100,000 it may be time for a rebuild or replace

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/sean_54c3a3dc48a7773c

It is your radiator. Too stopped up for a flush to do any good. Cooler temps in the winter will keep it cooling better versus hot summer temps.

It actually all depends on how you treat your car, any car that someone has put more than 80000 miles in 2 years is questionable, but if you have had no problems and you trust the car keep it.
