I used a tarp once over the whole tractor and will not do that again. I covered the W6 with a tarp and it dropped from 60 degrees to 20's and rain turned to ice and snow. Half way through winter, I went out to uncover and start the tractor and the motor wouldn't turn over. That was when I noticed everything was covered with frost and frozen condensation. Condensation formed in the cylinders with open valves and froze on the cylinder walls. Took us forever to thaw it out enough that it would turn over. Luckily it didn't damage anything. As long as everything is properly sealed, standing outside isn't such a big deal. It is harder on the paint than anything else.
