Propellers exposed to salt spray should be flushed with?

  1. engine oil

  2. fresh water

  3. soapy water

  4. corrosion inhibitor

The correct answer is: fresh water

Propellers exposed to salt spray should be flushed with fresh water. This is because saltwater contains corrosive agents that can damage the propellers over time. Flushing with engine oil or soapy water may not remove the salt residue effectively, and using a corrosion inhibitor may not provide adequate protection for the propellers. Fresh water is the best option for flushing as it helps to remove salt and prevent corrosion on the propellers.
