Springtime Startup 1996 Sportster

It's that wonderful time of the year in Michigan where boats can come out.

Last year was my first with a jet boat. I ran the antifreeze through the extra port and when I saw orange come out of the exhause, I turned the engine off..then changed plugs etc. and fogged...

Ok, how to I do the reverse and get ready for using the boat again? I never disconnected any tubes when winterizing, I just pinched the one to keep the antifreeze from leaking out...

thanks!

You can put the hose on it and flush it that way.
If you used car anti-freeze then don't let drain into the lake.
It will smoke since you fogged it, but it will dissipate soon enough. You may need to change plugs after that....check and see just in case.

Where are you in Michigan?

To reverse that process, charge the battery and fire it up.
