I used to let the tractors and combines sit all winter, that is until I had one tractor with a cylinder wall so dry and rusty that it squeeked when I finally cranked it up that spring. I have #2 fuel in then, so I wait for a mild winter day, plug in the engine heater for 6-12hrs to build some heat then run them for 1 hr to dry and re oil the engine. usually only once in mid winter.
