Criss if you are going to store them for sometime they make a preservative
oil that you put in and run for a few mintues to spread it around then
shut it down. when you take it out of storage you can run it on this oil
until its next schedules oil change. The nice thing is that it sticks to
the walls and other parts so that you don't have any rust forming in the
engine.

Try this site for a fogging oil.
