Storing your 7.3
Found out recently that work is paying for a little vacation. Seeing as the wife isn't too fond of carrying a step ladder or driving something that sounds like a gravel truck, the Shark will be parked for about 6-7 months. I'd like to make sure that when I get back it runs as well as it does today (completely subjective statement seeing as I have a moderately long list of things I need to fix). So, anything I need to take in to consideration prior to my departure to ensure things stay status quo with my truck before I leave?

I have no clue what may be involved but am interested to learn in case I ever have the need to park one of these things for an extended period. As it is now, I have a hard time keeping these trucks in one place long enough to perform routine maintenance...

I stored mine from November until about a week ago I drove it for the first time. All I did was fill the tank. Before I put it on the road I changed the oil and bought a new set of battery's (they were shot prior to storing) greased everything and went on my marry way. I don't dd it and still need to change the fuel filter just incase
