Sta-Bil Engine Fogging Oil, 12 oz Aerosol Can, STAB22001
Sta-Bil Engine Fogging Oil, 12 oz Aerosol Can, STAB22001
Sta-Bil Engine Fogging Oil is an aerosol-propelled oil treatment that protects internal engine components during storage. The convenient 12 oz aerosol can with a nozzle straw sprays directly into air intakes and cylinders, coating internal engine parts to prevent corrosion. The formula is designed to displace moisture from metal surfaces, protecting the engine from rust during layup. It also lubricates cylinder walls, pistons, and rings to prevent scuffing damage at start-up after prolonged storage.
This fogging oil is intended for use in all 2-cycle and 4-cycle gasoline engines, including outboard, marine, small internal combustion, and automotive engines. To use, start the engine and remove the air filter, then spray fogging oil into the air intakes of the running engine. After about 10 seconds, shut the engine off, remove the spark plugs, attach the extension tube, and spray fogging oil into each cylinder for approximately 3 seconds before replacing the spark plugs. This process leaves a protective coating inside the combustion chamber so the engine is corrosion-free and ready for an easier start-up when it is time to run again.
