it will not leak oil. but make sure the fuel is low enough so it doesent leak through the vent. or cap off the vent hole

Also after you take them out of the truck or whatever, let them sit for awhile before starting them. To let the oil redistribute throughout the motor. There was a thread on this not to long ago if you do a search to find it. Pretty sure it was Tri5ron's thread. BTW, " Welcome " .

turn the fuel petcock off and you should be good.

Be sure and turn your fuel off! if the fuel isnt turned off then the float will open and yes all your gas will run right out the carb.

So just flip the gas to off before doing that.

I usually turn off the gas and then run the motor until its out of fuel that way no leftover gas in the lines and carb run into your air filter!!
