Subject:      winter hibernation over!  Tips?
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;




I stored the camper in an unheated storage facility this winter.  Old barn.  Sawdust floor.  Covered it with a new breathable car cover (looks like a big J-clothe) from Canadian Tire.  I disconnected the battery (new last summer) but left it in the camper.  Someone has told me recently that maybe I should have taken the battery with me and kept it form getting so cold.  What are the chances the battery will be dead when I go to get the camper in a couple weeks?  What are the chances that the battery exploded?  


Should I do anything important or special before trying to turn the motor over, start it up and drive home.


Cheers,


Dan
