How do you prepare your saws for long term storagae e.g. year or nore? I normally spray the cylinder with fogging oil but am wondering more about keeping the carb diaphragms from getting stiff. On saws with purge bulbs some people will suck 2 stroke into the carb. What options are there for non purge bulb saws? Thanks
 
Clean it up, purge with canned fuel, fog the engine till it chokes out. Drain fuel and oil. Spray down with muc-off. (Or whatever you feel like using) put in the shelf. Nit much you're going to do to keep a diaphragm from getting hard with real long storage besides running it from time to time.
