Abstract
A device to reduce corrosion which occurs in an internal combustion engine during long periods of non-use. Inactivity allows atmospheric moisture to collect on internal engine surfaces producing rust, and in the engine oil producing slug. This invention provides a means of reducing the presence of this moisture by pressurizing the internal engine areas with low humidity air.
