Hi all,

Recently I broke my right leg during a fall... so I can't drive. The Dr.
says partial healing is about 6 months and full healing is about 12 months,
he will tell me when I can drive. For a van that can not be driven for some
time here are some opinions I got.

1. Do not start the van until you are able to drive it.
2. Start the van once a week and let it idle for 10 to 15 mn.
3. Only start the van if you can drive for about 20 miles so there will be
no condensation in the engine. Otherwise just leave it alone.

So... according to you.. what should I do?

Thank you for your help.
