Headed to Colorado in a couple weeks for elk and have a couple questions on some emergency gear for my '05 Tundra. 1. Does premixed antifreeze, oil, or auto tranmission fluid go bad. I take each with in case of emergency, but the stuff I have is unopened, about three years old and has been stored in an unheated garage year round. Still good to use or should I buy new stuff? 2. I want to buy one of those self contained jump starting packs with the jumper cables, air compressor etc. How many Cold Cranking amps do I need, the same as what my truck battery says for cold cranking amps? 3. Hopefully not more than 1 flat but just in case, have you ever used that "slime" stuff to seal and repair tires, or is the stuff in a can better? Thanks guys
1. unopened its fine 2. whats the weather gonna be like?? above 20F?? 600cca should be fine 3. it all works about the same but you should only use it long enough to get the tire shop to get a new tire...
I'm leaving in a couple of weeks also. Depends on the road you drive on you might want tire chains. When those dirt roads get wet they tend to get greasey.
