I will help in SE Wisconsin. If you needed a place to store it I have a ton of room on my farm. To store it: - PUT ANTIFREEZE IN IT!!!!!!!!! I know everybody has said it, but I have to beat the dead horse. It is not just the antifreeze effects that will help you out. Like they said you have to pull all the plugs on the motor (3?) and drain the radiator to PROBABLY get all the water out of the system. If it were me and you insist on doing it that way I would leave the ignition off and crank it a bit to push the water out of the water pump and voids. Just a thought, I never heard it anywhere else. - Oiling cylinders either with actual oil or when I was at the marina we had FOGGING OIL that did this. You would spray it in the plug holes and crank it with the plugs out for a bit. This would oil the cylinders to keep them from freezing up on you. - Sta-Bil (Possibly SeaFoam) in gas to stabalize it and protect you from water problems. Be sure to run the tractor after you do this. - Cover exhaust IMHO ;) these things should be done EVERY WINTER, INSIDE OR OUTSIDE! It is never going to hurt to cover it with a tarp, but (as said) don't attatch to ground. This will lock in moisture and create even more rusting and problems. You should smell how rotton a boat smells when it is shrinkwrapped wet!!!

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
