All the aircraft in our open-fronted hangar were literally dripping with moisture when I went to get mine out today.
I'm concerned about such moist air making its way via the short open exhaust pipes, into whichever cylinder has the exhaust valve open. I figure the oily filter and carb butterfly on the inlet provides some protection that side.
Is there a position ( C90-14F) that leaves all valves closed? Or at the very least, all exhaust valves?
I could then always position the prop appropriately.
I'd "bag" the exhausts but they stay hot a while and I'd hate to melt anything onto them.
