I have a Tecumseh engine that needs to be rebuilt can it be stored without oil until I find time to rebuild it or should I add oil to the crank case. Thanks in advance

No oil is OK with me. Indoors
Remove spark plug and put small amount of oil inside @ TDC.
Replace plug.

I like to leave some oil inside to prevent rust. Don´t forget to empty the carburetor bowl and clean it. Leave a WD40 shoot inside is good, next seasson you have it ready to go.:thumbsup:
