Winterizing Outboard
#2
I just bought a spray can of fogging oil today for my motor from Marine Products, along with a set of earmuffs for putting water into the motor. The gu at the counter said to just open up the front of the motor where the carb intakes are visible, run the motor and then spray in the oil until there's a good cloud of smoke from the exhausts. Then drain the motor with it hanging straight down- running position. The rest of the stuff you mentioned are important as well. The can of fogger oil was ~$7 and supposed to be godd for 3-4 treatments.

I'm not going to drain my carbs by running it out of fuel since I have the Sta-bil stabilizer and ethanol protectant (both) in my fuel tank.

Then it is going out for shrink wrap later this week. Last year I used a fabric cover but it didn't work well enough for the snow.
