Message	there is really no need to coat the cylinder walls for storage. If you just got the block back from boring/honing than you want to coat the walls with WD40 to prevent rust. Once you are installing the pistons you need to coat with fresh engine oil. Conventional oil and not synthetic.

Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM P.S. You REALLY are on here at ALL hours!
