My car's in "hibernation" in the garage until spring - and I've been
following with interest several threads here on minimizing deterioration during
that time.
Question, and seeking opinions, re cranking the engine without starting
occasionally to maintain lubrication.
I understand the crank sits just above the oil sump (but would prefer not to
deliberately overfill then drain.) If maybe once a month or so I were to
turn it over a few times without spark as someone suggested here, would oil get
kicked up anywhere other than to the crank bearings? No oil pressure would
develop without a running engine anyway, right?, so how many turns of the
engine would be too many and risk doing more bad than good.
Thanks.
