Haha. Yeah, I know a whole lot through that process...

Will just doing that keep the truck from damage until I can come back to it in a year or so and spend a proper amount of time tinkering on it? I really do want to head out there and for a week seeing family and messing around on it but right now my priority is to prevent any damage it may incur from long term storage.

I wouldn't have even thought about the passage of time doing real damage until a friend told me that the engine could seize if left for too long.
