De-winterize?

[sspade]

Hello. About to put my spark in the water in the next couple weeks and was wondering what I will need / should do prior to firing it up after being in storage since the fall.

I followed the storage procedure from factory as close as possible. Just bought this machine last summer so its my first go round with firing it up after sitting.

Can I literally just reattach the battery cable and fire it up?

Fresh oil change. Full tank of fuel (with stabilizer). Engine fogged through intake. Cleaned and lubed the pump. Full inside and out clean and drain. All done in fall.

Please share thoughts, opinions, experiences!

Yep,, battery installed, check fluid levels, fire it up in the driveway for less than a minute.

Ride and enjoy it.

Oil changes should be done at the end of the season prior to storage. This gets rid of any contaminants and leaves just quality oil sitting in the ski over the winter months.

Great thanks for the response. I did do the oil change and all suggested winterization prior to storage. So plug battery in and let her rip. Sweet.
