Help me with some simple ski de-winterizing

No need for jokes like this. If someone else looks to this thread they may not be able to tell and follow bad directions.



I hope you're not just cranking the hell out of it nonstop. You'll burn up the starter that way and potentially fry the batt. Crank for 10-15 secs then give it another 10-15 rest before cranking again as a rough guideline. If it's taking too long to pull fuel with the tricks above you've got other issues.

No way, not cranking non stop at all Was just wondering. I only crank for 5 seconds usually anyways. I was merely wondering how much their charge would last.

Quinc, thank you for the math on it. It is the ETX9.

I usually pour a half gallon to a gallon if rubbing alcohol down the carbs then fire it up. Helps seat the rings real well.

No no no, straight 2 cycle oil is what you need, just enough till it's about to overflow out of the engine

Will make a two cylinder run if it has 0 psi on one cylinder and pour it in that one cylinder.

I found an old lawn mower out behind my shop, had about a gallon of gas left! Ski has never ran this good

My beater car runs the best on old Jetski gas. Premix and all
