Unless you're going to drive it, just let it sit. If you start it up and just
let it idle for a while you'll get a lot of condensation in your exhaust that
will eventually rust through. If you have a stainless exhaust you might be ok,
but you'll still get condensation in the oil, which can form acids--not good.
You're probably better off 'pickling' your engine for the winter: fresh oil,
one last good run to slosh it around, moisture-absorbing spark plugs, etc.
Or move to Florida.
