Corrosion-X is great as an anti-corrosive spray, but it is a bit too heavy and sticky to be any good for treating an engine that has been dunked in water.

I became aware of the product because its commonly used to treat the interior of airframes to prevent corrosion. I plan to clean all my diesel and treat all the exposed metal I can find on the boat with Corrosion-X over this winter.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
