One more thing: Run it once in a while! Too many people run their
generators once, put them in the garage for months or even years, then
pull them out to find that the battery has solidified into a beautiful
blue-green mass of crystals, or the motor is frozen, or the carb is
gummed up because they didn't drain the bowl.

Very good advice. In fact I've gotten in the habit of adding
the stor-n-start to the fuel of things like that and my trash
pump. Once the fuel goes south you can't use it, and that sucks
when you're trying to start the thing you never use but need
right NOW! lol
