Wondering what considerations there would be in storing a used electric fuel pump that likely has a fair number of miles left in it. Suggestions? Thanks.

Maybe coat it with a shot of WD-40 and wrap it in Saran wrap. Then bag it. I've got some fairly new parts coming off the car I'm junking because they'll fit my new car. Alternator, starter motor, coil packs, spark module, A/C compressor, condenser. Except for the condenser which I'll just plug, that's what I'm thinking of doing. Might be years before I use them. So I'm watching this to see other advice. I'll have to go buy WD-40. Don't like it, but I hear this is what it's made for.

How would you store a mildly used electric fuel pump?

For racing pumps they suggest put some oil in and run for 1-2 seconts .then store in a dry place and do that every six months.

Would my fuel pump be safe overnight if left out. While I work in my motorcycle???
