Well guys i leave monday for basic and wont have my celica back for about 8 months. It'll be sitting in the garage in pa where it gets decently cold. I already got fuel stabilizer what else should I do besides detail it and cover it?

How cold?Cold enough to freeze your "antifreeze" if its in bad condition? I had a friend go out for a year..come back and the coolant had frozen,expanded and cracked his block..If it gets really cold <20F i would just drain all the fluids just for peace of mind..
