I have often spoken to my engine and gearbox but no reply I'm afraid. :lol:
As far as conservation is concerned Oil down the bores cover all openings with oily clothes.

I mostly speak to my car as a whole. But words have been spoken to the engine, at special moments....

There exists "conservation oil" in spray cans. But I have used thin oil of any type, in spray can, to stop steel and aluminium to oxidize during storage. The oil need to be a bit sticky and cling well to the metal. I take out the spark plug and spray in the sylinder, and on the outside wherever I think it is necessary.
