    Battery disconnect during winter storage......

    Hey Guys....

    Just bought a new battery as the old one, according to the
    heat stamped code on the side, was about 8 years old and
    starting had become a real chore with many overnight
    trickle charges before a show or day out in her.

    Side post batteries are not commonplace here but i got a pretty
    good one. Optima were pretty expensive so bought a more
    reasonably priced one.

    Anyhow.... I have secured a place to store her over the coming
    winter but it's a few miles away so my question is, will the PCM
    or any other part of the electrics suffer with no battery in the car
    if i keep it at home?

    As far as i know the PCM will not "forget" anything? Correct?


    Thanks guys....

    It'll be fine. No reason why you can't leave the battery in the car also and just put a trickle charger on it. If you have electricity where it's being stored.
