Holiday

I will shortly be flying to Cuba for 2 weeks. Can anyone tell me if the crossfire will still start without much effort after 2 weeks being left idle? I used to leave my previous Mazda MX5 for 5 days and it would take at least 6 attempts to get it going and the car was practically brand new. So I was wondering if this could happen with the crossfire when I get back.

You shouldn't have a problem. I left mine for two weeks, and it started first time.

Have a great Holiday

Cheers Jon

FYI You might want to watch Cuba's weather. They just got hammered by a hurricane (Gustav) with more on the way.

Re: Holiday

I left mine at work for three weeks started first turn no problem
The only problem was the gits at work had put stick on scrapes down the rear wing I was not amused they looked really real in the dark.
