I think that we will all agree that MOST GUYS here ....on anything we drive ....we have fairly fresh oil in even our daily-drivers. So as long as the oil is "clear" and relatively fresh(the last two motors I shut-down - a 440 and 413)...not to worry. Both had a 1000 or so miles on the oil-change.

It is just a personal preference though. I have heard of some that change oil before and after coming out of storage ....

Oh well .. it is their money to spend as they see fit.
