Ken;
It's not likely that liquid lube oil poured into the intake would cause hydraulic lock because it is unlikely that any of it would actually get into the cylinders unless you used a whole lot of it. Most would end up coating the bottom of the manifold. In all probability it would eventually vaporize when the manifold gets hot and burn up during normal combustion. Fogging oil will work a lot better for what you want to accomplish. Rick From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Ken Rodmell Sent: Saturday, November 30, 2013 9:57 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Winterizing Rick Thanks so much for the information. I guess I was lucky to get away with my oil in the air intake without creating hydraulic lock. From now on no more oil ...this spring it's fogging spray only. As you recall I asked for advice from someone with more knowledge than me and your excellent explanation was exactly what I needed to hear. I hope other listers will take heed too. I guess we're never too old to learn something new. Thanks again. Ken Rodmell Lotus C&C Mk II toronto
