Starting my Mazda
 

Hello. I have a truck that I have been driving through the winter. I haven't driven my 2010 Speed3 in months . The battery is dead an needs to be replaced. Are there any particular precautions I should take before firing it up? i

Besides possibly a rough start, you should be fine. Just plop that new battery in, made sure your fluids are good, and give her a turn. If your car runs rough after a few miles, maybe your fuel got water in it (if you have high ethanol levels).
