Rev, Bob has ya darn well covered and does about the same as I. When I owned Farmalls years ago I told people when winter starting to just try n milk the pistons over i.e. push the starter till a piston rolls over on compression then let her rest a tad then repeat the process. DO NOT JUST KEEP THE STARTER ENGAGED cuz the battery will run down. I found if the ignition was in tip top shape just rolling n milking a piston up to TDC would eventually hit n make her run Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Keep direct rain or snow off the distributor BUT DO NOT have them tight plastic covered so they cant breathe and moisture condenses on them.

Use good wires and boots and maybe a lil ignition spray so moisture dont infiltrate into the high voltage wiring causing arcing

Keep fresh clean water free gas and use Sta Bill and water remover in the gas now n then as needed.

If and as necessary, non abrasively clean/buff/polish the points with a dollar bill drug between them to remove the gray oxide build up. Keep the distributor cap clean n dry inside n out.

DID ANYONE MENTION 00 GAUGE BATTERY N STARTER N GROUND CABLES AND HEAVY RATED BATTERYS LOL
