Ive always heard a full tank is best as such reduces internal condensation plus theres liquid versus air against the tanks inner surface to reduce rust/oxidation.....
I also use Sta Bil ..............
I also mix a small quantity of low ash 2 Cycle Outboard Motor Oil in my gas and Sta Bil as I believe it can leave a light film of oil residue which can reduce corrosion/oxidation (carb and tank etc)......
I run the tractors a while so the gas and Sta Bil and 2 Cycle Oil gets mixed and fills the carb but then I turn off the gas and let them die of starvation ......
I change oil before putting them to bed cuz I dont want the old oil and acids on the bearing surfaces all winter.
Batteries kept charged with a battery minder etc.
Its good to remove plugs n squirt oil down in the cylinders to keep walls n rings oil coated to reduce rust
If its a Mag I leave it where it just snapped so points are open
Of course I dont like tires sittin on earth DUH and I air them good so they dont set all winter with any creases.
For the past 4 years after Ive done all that my hand start JD B has started the first or second pull in the spring
Im sure theres MORE TIPS I forgot but the other fine gents will add to this
