Then you crank the engine a few times without turning over. Good luck
I agree. Mike I have my Yami winterized by a Yami dealer and they fog the moter with something. I don't think its the same fogging oil they use on a 2 stroke but I know for a fact that Jeff fogs my motor. Started on the first crank last spring. They also do the same stuff that Prof M listed. I change my water pump impeller and thermostat every year. Probably could go 2 years but I run alot and don't want any issues in the Spring. The guys also run RV antifreeze thru all my water systems. Bilge pumps, raw water washdown and live well.

No boat, back in the suds.
