And DON'T run the engine once a month "just to let it roar". If you aren't going to drive it for an hour, don't start it. Don't take my word for it, ask the dealer service manager. Or any competent mechanic.
The generator should be started once a month and RUN UNDER LOAD, (heat, AC, what ever) for 30 to 60 minutes.
Absolutely correct.
And, right before you park, fill the fuel tank to minimize condensation. For only a month or two, not sure you would need any fuel stabilizer.
ON EDIT: Correctly, below, rgatijnet1 corrected my "no need for fuel stabilizer". Yes, were you to burn the tank of fuel within a month or two, it would not be needed. But if your "moving around within FL" does not burn it during that time period, indeed, DO use a fuel stabilizer.
