HELP! Mud dauber wasps are making their dirty nest inside my engine causing all kinds of problems.<br /><br />Any ideas on how to keep them out of my engine?

Re: Wasp nest in engine

Been there, done that!!!<br />The little buggers can get into some tight spots! They cost me lotsa time and money, only to find the tiny adobe condo in my intake!<br />Anyhoo, I have found t-paper to work great.<br />Roll up a small amount of t-paper, and stuff it into all the exaust ports and telltales.<br />The intake requires a pice of 2" masking tape on my engine. I could use something heavier, but then...If i forget it the t-paper or maskin tape, the water will desolve it quickly.
