PRESERVATIVE SELECTION
When transmissions are to be stored or remain inactive for extended periods of time,
specific preservative methods are recommended to prevent rust and corrosion damage.
The length of storage will usually determine the preservative method to be used. Various
methods are described below.

weeks without further treatment. Refer to the Funk Transmission manual for additional
