    So I tore the snout of my supercharger to replace the coupler since I had a rattling noise at idle. I attempted to syphon the oil out but it seemed to not want to come out. I removed all the bolts from the snout and found rust colored tree sap consistency in the snout. Brake cleaner hardly touches this crap. Anyone seen this before? The car actually ran great, had a max boost of around 7.5psi. Before I bought the car it sat outside for 2 years, but was still in great shape. Is this oil that was ran way to long or did water somehow get in? Please leave some feedback, I'm at a loss for words.
