Anybody ever stored their struck long term? Mine is going into .Gov in August for 3 years. From what I understand, they put it on blocks and run it every month, but I'm curious if I should do any other preps besides fresh fluids before I turn it in. They say to have less than 1/4 tank in it.....any other ideas?

Yes, put in some biocide to keep the slimey build up from occuring from long term storage. You can find it at marine and farm supply stores. Very important.

This is NOT the same thing as the typical Stanadyne or PS fuel treatments.
