I've been spraying Rust Check ( a petroleum based rust inhibitor and
lube)   Link: http://www.rustcheck.com/ all over the seams in engine
bay, rusty PS hard lines etc. On that note......

Would you spray this stuff on the intake runners? Mine are rusty and
want to slow down the rust and paint them another day.

I bet it's ok to do so, but had thought that any left behind might
ignite from engine heat. Not likely but could use your opinion.
