I once met a guy who claimed he kept his brake lines from rusting by spraying PB Blaster on them periodically

a little bit goes a long way, make sure the por is warm and not cold, when cold its thick. so leave it in the sun for a while it goes further.

Then just brush it on? It wont like trap salt In the rocker and really rust it will it? Thats what im most worried about.

Its probably possible lol. But its very thin, probably washes off easy. Grease is thick, same deal though. Metal will not rust when covered in grease and its easy and cheap

Russ, por 15 or nothing lol. Or grease.

Exactly what scotty said. I did the whole undercarriage of my GN in a quart of the stuff.

Leave er in the sun on a scorcher. Prep everything and when you're ready to go itll be nice and runny.

Wear gloves. It takes a good 5 days to wear off your hands.

it will seal what ever is there forever, rust dirt, you name it. its a air tight bond that will not come off. best to litly wire bushe any loose carp off, do not sand it clean, leave the rust, it bonds to it and seals it off from water and or air.

por was made to coat battery trays, its acid resistant and everything else resistant.

Grease sounds cheap, but I'll look into por 15 more. This last winter didn't even rust my rockers really just the RR fender is poop. Mostly because anytime it got above 32 I hit the touchless wash with an undercarriage wash. I'll have to examine the rockers next oil change and see what all it involves with little nooks and crannies.

coat that up, so it never rots out.

It will be a busy weekend

Well, I was leaving work this afternoon and rear ended an older lady in a Galant. I'm fine but she had an ambulance come and take her to the hospital because her back was hurting.

Car is still drivable and I'm thankful for that. Could have been worse.

Heres my car before I cleaned all the broken bits of plastic and ****.


and after cleaning it up

Don't be a Russ and get sprayed with fuel. It's a simple job.

Recommendation?

For those that don't know why the preference.

All clean

Doesn't look like a vacuum leak to me. Fuel trims are pretty close.
