When I was working for Mike Salta Pontiac, in Long Beach, I was the only salesperson to sell TWO DeLoreans. The owner drove one, and disassembled the other. He oiled and bagged all the metal parts, to store them. Yes, leave it oiled. It's a pretty common practice, after an engine has been stored for a while, to pull the plugs and squirt a little WD40 in before starting it up again. Pre-lubrication.
