Default RE: Piston Damage

Only 2 ways I have managed to rust out bearings and rust them in a hurry. One not running all the fuel out of the engine at the end of the day and I mean all of it. Two storing a plane in the garage with the nose pointed down with a tuned pipe on the exhaust. The pipe makes a wonderful condenser. Took two engines with about a tea spoon of water in them for me to figure that out.
