As always, thank you for your response(s). So, if I understand what has been said, there is no problem with just leaving the transmission stagnant for the three to four month period and upon departure, I bring the engine up to operating temperature and drive away slowly allowing the transmission to warm up properly. I do start the engine every two weeks or so and bring the engine temp up to 130 degrees. I do this to circulate the oil, etc. Please advise regarding this procedure. Thank you
