So a mixture of atf and after a few days drying a dose of marvel mistery oil then inside a bag and that will do the trick?
What about glow plug; with or with out it?
Thanks again.
To make clearly: First flush the engine with alcohol to remove moisture in the engine then oil inside in the engine with Marvel Mystery oil or ATF. Then put in the plastic bag and store away. With glow plug, of course..

Also do not wait in few days to dry out alcohol, it will absorb moisture inside the engine and make rust in steel parts. The alcohol will evaporate fast in short time, then oil the engine short after the engine has been flushed with alcohol.


If one uses Marvel Air Tool Oil, no preflush is necessary. This type of air tool oil absorbs moisture and binds it up so that it is harmless to your engine. How to tell? The normally red color will shift to a yellow to a chartreuse color with the more moisture it absorbs.

Additionally, this air tool oil is great for long term storage IF the engine is stored in an air tight container, such as a pickle jar with a metal lid. If the air tool engine immediately turns yellow, then flush it out with keroene and then fill the engine with air tool oil again. When you operate the engine again, remove the glow plug and hold a rag over the glow plug hole, then blip the engine over several times with an electric starter. When the engine stops spitting oil, replace the glow plug, fuel the tank and run the engine as you normally would. Works for me.
