Default Fogging Oil using in a boosted car??

Has anybody ever used Fogging Oil when storing their car for a long period of time (1 year)?? Will it cause any harm to the internals?

Fogging Oil is used mainly in boats / watercraft when storing them to prevent any rust or corosion from occuring inside the motor. It basically "fogs" the engine internals with lubricants and anti corrosive agents and disipates moisture.

I am planning on doing it this weekend, has anybody ever done this or had experience with it?

I winterize all of my cars every year. I use marvel mystery oil. On carb cars I start the car get it warm and them start pouring it in the carb until it either kills the motor or really starts to smoke. I then pull the plugs and squirt a little in each cylinder and crank it over a few times and then squirt a little more in. Same concept on a Fuel Injected car I just spray it in the throttle body and then pull the plugs and do the same thing. Also make sure you put fuel stablizer in the gas and I usually fill the tank to try and keep down on condensation. Also jack the car up and put it on 4 jack stands so you do not get flat spots in your tires.

Hope that helps.

Here in PA you can get it anywhere. Any auto parts store, even walmart sells it. It will have no ill effects on your turbo and you can even add it to your gas.
