Is this going to cause any long term problems or do i just sand/wire brush the rust off.
It was most disappointing to see my new pride and joy arrive in not so pristine cond.
Do i need to pull the motor down and look for any internal corrosion?
The motor is still sealed in it original packaging.
I'm not having a shot at Ron as the main reason I purchased a werks was because of the amazing customer support he offers.
tried to post some pics but didnt work
