Make sure the anti-freeze is good & fresh.
Add some stabilizer & pre-mix (2-stroke oil) to the gas.
Run it for a minute.
Shut it off & disconnect the battery.
Tuck it in for the winter.

Springtime startup:
Check & connect the battery
Put some cheap fuel injector cleaner in the gas.
--(It is lame at cleaning injectors, but the alcohol in it will sweep up any condensed moisture in the fuel.)
Start it up.
