Didnt have any fog spray on hand, so I used marvals mystery oil and sprayed quite a bit 7-10 second spray in my cylinders for winter. Do I need to worry about start up and hydrolic lock? Or do you think im safe? Just dont know how much it can take? Jet

7-10 seconds is quite a bit.....only need 2-3 secs. After you spray you should bump the motor over to distribute the oil other wise its just in the one place. you can pull the lanyard or put throttle in flooded engine mode and turn over with the plugs out. generally even with the plugs in the force of the starter turning is not enough to bend a rod or cause damage.
