My brother has followed the advice of his boats builder and liberally coated the engine and its related parts with WD 40 applying a few squirts each time he uses the boat in order to keep everything in tip top order. The result is no rust and it all looks bright and in very good fettle.however the two front engine mount rubbers have completely perished and beyond what one would expect with age they have almost turned to crumbs whilst the back ones are fine. There hasn't been any diesel spillage onto the mounts so could it be the WD40.The clue seems to be that the back ones.beyond the reach of the spray are fine.any thoughts
