I'm pretty sure this has been covered but couldn't find it. After draining and drying all my FI stuff. What lube would you use for several months of storage?

If you have an alluminum tank make sure it is empty and dry . I disconnect the lines from nozzles and blow air through the barrel valve and hoses . a little wd40 or mystery oil will help too. I take the pump off and flush it good with mystery oil and cap all the fittings . Don't forget your fuel shut off and jet cans they could use a little lube as well.
