I disconnect the fuel line from the carb and connect it to the pressure fitting on the tank when not in use so fuel doesn't stay/get in(to) the engine. I run the engines absolutely dry at the end of the day. I also set the piston to BDC so the ports are open and allow the crankcase to air out so to speak. Any residual fuel residue inside the crankcase will eventually cause rust to happen.
