My manual for my boat engine has me
disconnecting fuel line. Then fill
sediment/fuel filter bowl with stabil.
Start engine, let it run until stabilizer
is through fuel system. Shut it down.
Remove plugs, then spray cylinder heads
with fogging oil. Work flywheel back and
forth to distribute oil well. Replace
plugs. Also, change oils, including any
gear oils to assure no water is left in
any areas that might freeze and cause
cracked housings.

I assume all of this would apply to
tractors. I will follow these steps
on mine, if they are to sit unused for
over two months.

Of course, none of this is crucial if
you have heated storage.

Best regards,

Tim, Ohio
