Hi Bill,

If you will not be running the engine regularly be sure to get some 
light oil into each chamber so the seals won't rust and stick. 
Especially if you shut down last time by cutting the ignition and thus 
left gasoline in the engine. I recall that Ed had a bad experience after 
leaving the engine flooded for a long time.
