Rick, We both being here in Northern California, I haven't experienced the corrosion issue, But then again I tend to run it dry when I know it's going to sit long term (fuel pump and the carbs). I was planning to pull apart my carbs for the winter anyway just for R&R.

Only if it would start raining...Oh, it's another nice day today for a drive.

Cheers,
