I ks, after run oil inside (except carb), put in ziplock, then spray a light coat of wd40 before sealing it. Then drop the ziplock in another ziplock, double sealed.
Haven't come across any prob when I take it out to use on another plane, and no discoloration on the outside even after a year.huh

Just started all my engines after 20 months of no-flying and all OK. 20months of being in 'storage', they been in 40 ft high-cube containers, at sea for 2 months, gone through +45 degree heat and -25 cold, and also covered with sawdust from my workshop, and still OK.
All I did was run it dry ...
Need to start flying again, but the 60 km/h winds make it a little challenging!!!!
