Well it wasnt sitting in a dry climate for 2 years. It was sitting in a humid one for 20 years. Don't get me wrong I am totally going to go the kerosene route first. I've probably already poured 2 or 3 qts of oil in, guess i should probably drain it first or just should i add the kerosene on top.minimike wrote:You're making a mistake to not first try to free up the engine. 2 years in a dry climate is not something that would bother an engine. I've bought dozens of cars that had not been running for years here in the northeast and with a little persuasion, had the motors freed up, and driving. a low miles car doesn't need a rebuild does it? $1,000 vs. 2 quarts of Kerosene?
Hmmmm. I think I'd do the no brainer move. Send me the difference or contribute it to this site for Mark.
