The biggest culprit is ethanol blended fuel. It draws moisture and causes corrosion. It’s also destructive to non ethanol safe rubber and gasket material. Previously I stored everything full of fuel but that isn’t the answer with ethanol. Maybe for short term storage, like a few months, additive will help. Obviously antifreeze and a battery tender, perhaps getting the weight off of the tires and suspension to preserve springs and rubber?
