Hey guys,

Due to my work schedule my car sits sometimes for 2/3 weeks without starting. Do you suggest the same procedure as if it was stored for the winter., ie; remove the DME and build oil pressure?

Thanks in Advance

It cant hurt... but certainly not "necessary"... In a perfect world Id do it every time...

I'll volunteer to be today's pedant.

Undoing and reinstalling the DME RELAY to allow oil pressure to build up at start-up is a good practice between longer periods of non-use. I don't think you want to be removing the actual DME.

2-3 weeks is nothing to worry about

All that plugging and unplugging will stress the solder joints on the relay leading to premature failure
Carry a spare if you do this or wire a disable switch to the spare in the center console
