Old 2 stroke Merc - what to do about rust
The outboard has sat for a while (supposedly winterized for long term storage).
Current plan is to spray some penetrating fluid on the spark plugs before pulling to see how the piston walls look.
Thoughts on the bolts around the cylinder head though? Should I just leave them be and spray some oil on them to stop the rust from getting worse?
Rest of the engine so far looks alright.
