the trivial complaints thread

Just be sure to winterize after each ride in case the temps drop suddenly.

I rode late December once back home and then stuck my Seadoo in my heated shop. I planned on winterizing it on the weekend so I figured it was fine for the week.

The temps dropped to -30C by Thursday and I came home to find my Dad had needed my shop, and rather than move my Seadoo off to one side, he rolled it outside and left it.

The engine was fine but the water swelled in the pump and destroyed it. Cost me close to a grand to replace it.

Jeeze! That's crazy. What's the best way to get the water out of the cooling system then? Run it as dry as you can out of the water, then dump some antifreeze into the head and pipe and run it through?

Fire extinguisher loaded with non toxic antifreeze. Or an air compressor.

I think standard winterizing techniques would suffice for the big stuff, just consider a few places that water may creep into that would normally dry up if you winterized in advance.

The Seadoo pump was trashed because it had a horrible sealing system that just about always had water in with the jet pump oil. I always had the added step of pulling the pump and changing the oil before I put it up for the winter.

Whoever stacked these boxes set me up for disaster. Barely moved the two boxes in front, and it caught on the tall stack and they slipped through the top of the bottom box. Had to fill the gap between the boxes I was lifting up with pallets and cardboard so nothing would move when I took out the forklift. Now I'm counting on the forks next to the boxes is enough to stop them if they move.. I just have to freeken hope that it stays where it's at by the time help gets here otherwise a few thousand dollars go down the drain

Get a rope and come from the right thru the ceiling joist and wrap around and back. Then pull the stack back over, then start down stacking.
