Storing a spare injection pump?

I want to keep my spare injection pump (all virgin with all seals intact if you can believe it) in storage until needed. My question is what do you think would be the best fluid to put in the pump to keep it lubricated and preserve the seals? I was thinking maybe ATF? I know oil will damage the seals and WD40 turns sticky and gummy when it dries. Any ideas?
