Glenshoe, I've got two suggestions for your situation. One is easy and one is fun. You decide which is which.
1-Drain the fuel out of any engine that you won't be using for the winter. Spray a little WD40 in the tank, if it makes you feel better, Put the cap on the tank, start the engine and run the fuel out of the carb. Put it away til Spring. Orrrr
2- Every other Saturday morning during the winter start the engines, listen to them purr for about 5 minutes and then sit back and appreciate the fact that you're blest with such great toys.

I never liked the idea of letting internal combustion engines sit for long periods of time. Seals deteriorate, surface rust starts on cylinder walls, etc. I yhink it's good preventive maintenance to start them up on a regular basis. Oldfarmboy Jim
