Default RE: Can i save a rusted nitro motor?

Rust in 5 or 6 days has locked up the engine. I would think that is an extremely short period of time to lock up the engine, but anyway you can fill up the engine with fuel and let it soak for a day or two. Drain it and it should loosen up. Once it has loosened up, put some oil in it like gun oil or 3 in 1 oil to preserve it. Good Luck, Dave
