Re: Lock Freeze

Hi Shane;

    I have found that flushing the moisture out of the locks with WD-40
before freeze-up usually kept them free all winter. Be careful with the
application; having it run down the door doesn't do the paint much good.

    Of course, now that I have the '91 200q with the heated lock cylinders,
I never have a problem!
