14 If the lubricating oil filler is fitted onto the rocker cover, remove the filler cap. If the lubricating oil filler is not
fitted onto the rocker cover, remove the rocker cover. Spray POWERPART Lay-Up 2 around the rocker shaft
assembly. Fit the filler cap or rocker cover.
15 Seal the vent pipe of the fuel tank or the fuel filler cap with waterproof tape.
16 Remove the drive belts and put them into storage.
17 In order to prevent corrosion, spray the engine with POWERPART Lay-Up 3. Do not spray the area inside
the alternator cooling fan.
Caution: After a period in storage, but before the engine is started, operate the starter motor with the engine
stop control in the “stop” position until oil pressure is indicated. Oil pressure can be indicated either by a gauge
or when a low pressure warning light is extinguished. If a solenoid stop control is used on the fuel injection
pump, it must be disconnected for this operation.
If the engine protection is done correctly according to the above recommendations, no corrosion damage will
normally occur. Perkins are not responsible for damage which may occur when an engine is in storage after a
period in service.
