Ok im new with a PWC and first winter with it. It hasent seen water since August of this year, do i still need to blow anything out with air? It will be stored in a barn(not heated) and i do have XPS spray and if im right pull the plugs and spray down into the cylinders turn the engine over and spray a little more, and put plugs back in? Also pull the battery and put on trickle charge....miss anything?

Its a GTI SE 130

Before you fog the motor...fire it up for a min or so and get any water outa the exhaust.

Here is a link to the instruction you need for winterizing, this should get you through it.

Ok ill be sure to start it up for a bit to blow any water out if any. After i spray the cylinders a bit do i run it or just turn it over a few times to move the lube around?

Just turn it over a few times with the spark plugs out, keep the throttle lever fully depressed when starting to prevent fuel from being injected. I usually place a rag over the spark plugs holes to catch any fogging spray. Put the spark plugs back in.

ok guys, not going to get into the details but here in Ohio its already cold....20's to be exact....the jet ski is outside and as stated before not run in water since august, i have 3 jobs and never got anything done on it except pulled the battery. Am i screwed or since its been out of the water so long and only 8 hours on it am i ok??

Depending how long its been that cold, if it is only for a few hours of the day you might get lucky but your taking a big chance leaving it, which I'm sure you know already. You did blow most of the water out but there will always be some in there.

If you cant get it winterized properly soon, at the very least run an extension cord and put 1 or 2 light bulbs under the seat until you can get it done.
