My celica is sitting in my driveway, and will be in the garage for the winter. What could happen if it sits for too long? What can I do to mitigate the problems that come from this? Is there a way to properly store the car for long periods of time? I plan on storing it for a month to eight months. Thanks.

Oh if you decide to not use the fogger you can just remove the spark plugs and spray WD40 into the cylinders then reinsert the sparkplugs. If you let the engine sit for 8 months without any treatment or being turned over regularly then what happens is the cylinderwalls develop rust, because when the ambient temperature rises and cools off moisture will form.
