Gidday guys
Due to space limitations, I have to store my boat in my shed with the engine on full lock. Any issues with this? Should I give it a turn back and forth every now and then if I don't use it for a while?
Regards to all.

Help us with what you mean by "full lock". Left right up down?

Sorry, engine turned all the way to starboard.

As long as all the controls and fuel lines are not crimped, there is really no difference from straight or fully port.

If you store it for any long period treat the fuel and run it up into the engine real good and then fog it until it dies with CRC fogging oil.. trimmed down so it is vertical so all water drains out of it.. it will be fine until spring time.

Thanks guys.
it gets turned lock to lock every couple of weeks and has had the fuel stabilized. Just haven't had a chance to run for a while. Appreciate the advice.
