HELP I went to West Marine and was sold a corrosion inhibitor instead of a fogging oil I sprayed in carbs and removed plugs and sprayed in there will this hurt . what shoud i do to winterize the motor now
 
you should be fine, but you could pull the plugs, squirt some marvel mystery oil in there, and rotate the engine a couple times by hand to circulate it, or, start up the engine, spray in some powertune to clean it out, then fog it, if you are really worried.
 
Just remember that fogging is actually one of the last steps. You really should run some stabil in the fuel and then after it has run a bit drain the carbs and lines. The fogging oil does nothing for the carbs since it does not pass through the fuel and idle circuits.

I consider fogging oil just like wiping a gun down with oil to prevent corrosion.

Good luck.
