Not for storage - As Maintenance, you might want to run a bit of Mechanic in a Bottle through the machine a couple times AFTER bringing it out of storage, but other than that a good stabilizer like ethanol shield should be perfectly fine - Mechanic in a bottle if left to sit for too long can actually cause more problems down the road. (It can actually dissolve some types of rubber) In any case, as preventive maintenance, even with religious use of Ethanol shield (or even ethanol free gasoline) and the like, I would still recommend replacing fuel lines every couple or three years (in fact, fuel filter, if you are careful about using clean gas, you could replace lines and filter as a set every 2-3 years) But as regular storage, ethanol shield should do ya just fine.
