On catalytic converter-equipped engines,
Indmar does not recommend applying fog-
ging oil while the engine is running. The fog-
ging oil could damage the catalytic convert-
er. The cylinders must be protected by
removing the spark plugs and applying the
fogging oil directly into the cylinders.
3. On catalytic converter-equipped engines, remove the
spark plugs and apply the storage lubricant directly in
the cylinders. After all the cylinders have been treat-
ed, crank the engine to spread the lubricant on the
cylinder walls. Replace the spark plugs in the engine.
4. Perform annual maintenance, refer to Chapter 6,
Scheduled Maintenance Chart
.
5. Loosen all accessory drive belts and check condition.
Replace belt(s) if cracked or damaged.
6. Drain seawater section of the cooling system.
NOTICE
Placing all drain plugs, impeller, etc. in a plastic bag
and attaching the bag to the steering wheel of the
boat is a good reminder to reinsert the plugs when
you recommission the boat in the spring.
All Engines:
1. Drain water from exhaust manifolds except on salt
water series engines. Uncouple the hose quick
disconnect and drain the manifolds. Indmar
recommends that you leave the drain plugs out,
or the hose uncoupled, until spring.
2. Remove both hoses from the seawater pump on the
front of the engine. Drain any remaining water from
the hoses.
