Storage for a 63

It will be a while before I fit my little YS 63 into a airplane again. I put as much Mobil One syn. oil in it as I could and sealed it in a plastic zip lock bag. Will it be ok there?

It has been a real sweet engine I want it to rest happy.

Thanks,

Never tried Mobil 1, but I suspect the solvent content might be too high. If it is, all the silicone parts will be history.

What is Good ???

Exactly what is a good oil or other substance to treat a YS engine for extended storage? What is the recommended process for application. I have a YS FZ120.
Thanks, Robert.
