Storage of engine
(Preview)
I just bought a used Beta 20 with 170 hours on it. I am building a new sailboat and won't install the engine for two to three years. I was going to change the oil and coolant then run it for ten minutes or so, drain the fuel, before storing it indoors. Is there anything else I should do?
