Ya, don't drain the oil.

Read this tread for long term storage. Click --> Winter Storage Tips

I'm in Iraq as we speak... er, read. Anyways, what I did was fill up the tank and added fuel stabilizer, disconnect the battery, left in N w/ e-brake DOWN, windows cracked, and kissed her good-bye. She's in a 10 x 15 storage, which barely fits, because I don't trust leaving my car on base with PMO.

Good luck in Iraq. If this is your first time like mine, don't sweat it, hahaha.

Hey, you're in 29palms? I think i've seen you driving around a couple of times on base. You have somewhere else to store it besides that TMO lot right?
