Im 15, I have a '94 854T sitting in the garage waiting on me. It will be another year until I will be able to *legally* drive it. I am curious if it would be better to basicly store it, (drain gas to about a gallon, cover it, unplug battery, etc) or to start it, and get it up to temp then put it back(w/o driving more than down the driveway and back) I got caught "joy riding" a few weeks ago, so my dad pulled the plates, and stickers, hoping that would keep anyone from driving it. So its not really an option to drive it. Any opinions on storing vs. just letting it sit?? What sparked this question... Today I washed my car, started it up for the first time in about 2 weeks... pulled it back and got out, I noticed a puddle of water below the exhaust. I have heard that this extra condensation, over time (if it is not blown out by driving) will lead to possible corrosion of some metal parts. Some help please? Thank You ~Cody
