Sprintime Steps to startup

[larrybr45]

Could someone help me through the steps to get my 96 sportster to start after coming out of winter storage? If i have in the wrong order or am missing steps, please let me know.

1. Remove pinch on rear hose preventing antifreeze from leaking out
2. Hookup battery
3. Hookup garden hose to rear port of boat
4. Turn/crank engine
5. Once engine starts turn on hose?
6. Let engine run for 3 minutes
7. Turn off hose
8. Turn off engine

enjoy...I know somewhere somebody mentioned being careful running the hose that the engine had to be working first otherwise it could flood the engine.

It's just kinda the reverse for winterizing. Looks like you got it. Every year, except this one I always forget something that keeps it from starting be sure the fuel selector is either on main or reserve, make sure all the grounds are connected to the battery.
