"That's 'cause your memory sucks!

What would two or four stroke oil have to do with winterizing?

The winterizing question, asked by my Dutch friend, was why WD-40
wouldn't work as an engine fogger.
I expect it would do a fine job over a three or four month winter."


Say what!
I can't believe y'all said that. Anyone with half a working brain knows
that you change the 4 stroke engine oil when winterizing. Y'all better
get Mercury's maintenance manual.....or better yet, find a competent
person to handle your maintenance/winterizing.


Maybe depends on how much you ran the motor. I have a V8 and change the oil
yearly. Sometimes in the fall and sometimes in the spring. But we rarely
have deep freeze winter.
