I have read several things online and seen some stuff from seadoo however you know how they are on how detailed they get in the books "see dealer".The thing I am unclear on is making sure there is no water left in the system and how to get the antifreeze in it? What would be wrong with just taking RV antifreeze and pumping it thru the flush port with motor running till it runs out pink. That should be good I would think? Then Fog the cylinders and make sure the gas is treated with Stabil. This is the first year I have had this craft.
 
You got it correct. Add antifreezer through the flush port while it is running. You can fog the engine at the same time. Then shut it down and fog through the spark plug holes. Where in cincy are ya? im about 20 minutes south of the river.
 
I am about 30 miles east of the city. Thanks for the info and sadly I believe the nice weather is gone so its time to get it winterized.
 
Yeah i here ya...so im guessing you goto east fork? I go there a lot actually. This year i only got the boat out 2 times though. Maybe next year we can get some local peeps to meet over there.
 
can u buy akit or fitting to hook to the flush port? If so what size or where, im looking to do same to winterize as this is also my first PWC
thanks

there should be a threaded flush fitting built into your pump shoe...? it's on the outside, on the right side. just get a quick connect fitting or a simple male hose thread will work.

I have had it on the East Fork few times. Mainly go to Rocky Fork or the river. How do you fog the motor while running? I know on a motor with carbs you just spray in the intake. This is fuel injected.
 
What about using a small utility pump and a 5gal. bucket with the antifreeze ? I have heard of people using a drill pump, I just throw our two in the basement...
Oh, ever put'em on Lake Cumberland???
