Paul's message reminds me of another storage tip . . . when I was a teenager, we had problems with squirrels and rats eating the hood insulation and spark plug wires of any cars that were parked outside.  The solution was to place a handful of moth balls on top of the air cleaner and the intake manifold.  Replace as needed through the storage season, and the rodents will stay away.

Good luck!
