WIllit work or not??
 
I have a turbo 2 thzt got a engine with 70k on it. Well its been sitting for about 2 years I got the rebuild in. But the question is do you thing the rotors and housings will be alright after sitting that long. My idea is the engine has been flooded for 2 years and its just been sitting there. Feed back is appericated thanks

Most likely its been flooded for a few days, not years. The gas isn't going to stay in the housing for very long after its flooded...

We have two age questions floating around right now, this and another one about engines sitting. Im curious to see what exactly is the bad about leaving the engine sitting?

I'll give you my advice. I've read several posts now about people buying sevens that have been sitting without being turned on for a few years. They change all the fluids/filters and they usually fire right up and run fine.

I've heard though moisture can be a problem. But 2 years probably isn't terrible. However definately change all the fluids. Especially that OLD gas.

Oh yea I drained the gas tank and I have to drain all the other fluids to take the engine out so you guys think I'm goin got be alright. housing and rotor wise
