Also, a good friend and auto mechanic suggested removing the plugs on the
outboard, spraying the cylinders with WD40, spinning the engine a couple
times, and then putting the plugs back in.

Yep, I think that is exactly what YOU should do.
Everyone else should use the proper fogging oil that actually sticks
to surfaces for more than a few hours, and does some good. WD40 will
actually dilute and wash off any crankcase oil that remains on
surfaces, so it's worse than doing nothing.
Bet you didn't know Herring was a highly trained and edumacated combat
injuneer, thanks to the US Army. He's one of the reasons why we got our
asses kicked in Vietnam.
