Hmmm seems like a waste of effort to drain and store 55L of Ultra 94 to run in my lawn mower. I'd be lucky to burn 10L/ year.

The purpose of stabilizer is to ensure the fuel is still good to use in 6 months, otherwise it serves no purpose.

If in an unheated garage where theres a power receptacle, its best to keep a battery tender hooked up and never start the car until you take it out. In a warm condo garage perhaps start it every week to 10 days just to keep the battery from discharging. Running at idle 5 to 10 mins should do the job. Rolling forward or back slightly will help avoid flat spots on tires.
