I need to do an oil/filter/gasket(oil neck) change on my 1.6 83 diesel. As I�m going to be out of town for a week and I want to get as much oil out of there as possible, is there any problem anyone sees with draining it, taking the filter off, taking the filler neck off, and leaving it to sit for a week so that every last bit can drop out? It�s more of a timing issue than anything but I�m wondering if anyone sees a downsiude to this. Can an engine �dry out�? Dave
