What is the best way to 'winterize' my lawn mower and other seasonal
internal combustion engine yard tools for the next 5-6 months of winter?

thanks all - paul


Two methods:

Empty the tank and run dry. At this point you could add a cup of
kerosene to the tank if you remember to remove it in the spring. My
father used this technique, works great and prevents rust.

Add a stabilizer to *fresh* gasoline, add to the mower, and run the
engine for a couple minutes.
