Alright fella's and ladies. I'm leaving for Germany for four years (Active Duty Air Force). I'm going to store the car in Pittsburgh while I'm gone and I plan on coming back once a year to visit and maintain the car.
I've google and searched all over for fogging oils. Marvel Mystery Oil, SeaFoam, tranny fluid, and some other stuff I've ran across that people are using. What is a sure bet to keep my stuff good while I'm gone? This is a fresh build and I'd hate for corrossion to set in and ruin things.

Stabil has a good fogging oil I when to Afghanistan for 9 months got home lash the valves and fired it up my engine was just how i left it. DON'T USE WD-40 I used that on my engine before I left for basic and it was like it made rust in the cylinder form ,that first start up my starter was having a hard time to turn the engine

I researched the CorrosionX stuff pretty good. I ended up emailing back and forth with a fella named Alan pertaining to which product I needed and how to do use it right. They are super fast to respond to emails and provided plenty of information.
One thing with this stuff is if you spray it down the intake, it has to be on a cold non-running engine. I guess motoring the engine without spark or fuel should be enough to suck the stuff down and coat everything along with spraying some in the spark plug holes.
Thanks again for all of the input!
