    Engine running. Don't wear loose clothes. You don't want to get your clothes caught by the fan!

    Motor running,and go threw the gears a few times before checking,and like clu said don't wear loose clothes.

    I was taught neutral but that's been a couple years ago and things change.

    Neutral (with emergency break on) is correct.
