All good suggestions. I would drain everything out except the transmission oil and engine oil.And I would put some kerosene or diesel back in the fuel system,I prefer kerosene,a couple cups will do. It is like oiling a clock,the vapor fights moisture. Also if any have milky trans oil it needs drained also,it'll seperate while sitting and settle on bottom and be a big ice chunk.I would'nt leave old nasty engine oil in there either,theres some acid that attacks bearings,I think it comes from the gas additives.Like others said 7 years is a very long time. Make sure to squirt oil in the cyls,alot won't hurt anything,cause it ain't just going to start right up when you come back.
Just being nosy,why 7 years?
