er.. ok.. my celica might not be moving for a month or 2... so i'm wondering.. for those people that store their cars for long periods of time... is there anything you need to prep before leaving it standing still for so long? since i heard it oculd be bad if you just let it sit for too long

My car was sitting for nearly 3 months before I drove it again. I took the battery out and charged it on a battery charger. My gas was nearly full and it ran without a problem. Regular oil only really needs changed if it's been in the engine for 6 months, otherwise it should be fine as well. For the gas, I'd think the same thing, though you could throw in a bottle of stabilizer if you feel like it.
