Bob, Ima thinkin along the lines of Bob M, I dont like the sound of this. If you mean youre gonna take one of those jump start batery packs out to the tractor to start it (that what you mean???) Id just leave it connected to the battery cables while shes running. Better yet why not just haul the real battery out there n hook it up?????????? that would be my preference.

I dont like to let that genny and VR run wide open and not see a load like a big battery electron bank cuz thats how the genny n VR system is designed to operate and regulate things with that battery as a reference n stabilizer.

For long storage periods I recommend the oil be changed PRIOR to storage cuz the fresh oil wont have all the acids n left over contaminants. Over the winter one could periodically remove the plugs n squirt oil down the cylinders n crank her over to exercise the rings n valves n oil up the cylinder walls. I agree with Bob if youre not gonna let her run long enough to get her hot to dry out all the moisture n acids I wouldnt start her at all.

As far as gas, I recommend the use of Sta Bil plus I mix in some low ash marine combustible 2 cycle oil in cuz its my opinion it may leave some oil residue on the carbs interior n other places to reduce oxidation. I also run gumout in the gas to try n keep the carb cleaner. Store it with the carb drained (after the sta bil n 2 cycle oil has been used so its residue remains in the carb) and then before I restart I let the gas run a good while with the carbs drain opened to wash n flush n clean out the needle valve n seat area.

Its not as easy for you IHC 4 banger guys but on my 2 cylinder Deeres I like to store them wiht the ignition points left open

best wishes

John T
