15 plus years of putting it away standing up, vent closed and nothing else. I unplug the spark plug cap and then once a month, give it a few pulls to lube the cylinder. Still fires right up every winter and runs great.

4yrs same way with no issues. Next year when I head out I just top off the gas and oil.
Lookup the directions for storing your auger online. 100% sure it will say to drain all fuel and run the engine until the engine dies to ensure there is no fuel left in the carb. It's great that others have left fuel in the tank without problems, but that's kind of like the proverbial 100 year-old uncle who smokes 3 packs a day -- it happens, but it's not recommended.
