I'm picking up my motors from the seller in the morning. He's had them since new approx 3 years ago. He never started them but turned them over by hand about a year ago. Question is, should I spray something like CX in the cylinders if I'm going to store them for a few months? I don't have the manuals to look up the answer. Any help tonight would be greatly appreciated. I want to do what ever I need to this weekend and won't be around a computer.
Thanks.

John - Shooting CX in the cylinders would be a good idea, but will require pulling the injectors and putting them back in. If it were me, I'd do the CX since they have been sitting so long and the rings might tend to stick on start up. You fixin' to have a real fast boat my fren'.
