Vans been parked for like 3 years the shifter broke. I put a shifter in the floor and it started up and leaked when i put water in it. I noticed a couple of freeze plugs were missing i got them back in but it was so hard to fit them in all the way. There hard to reach. I live up in the mountains will they be alright till i get it to a shop thats 10 miles away?
