Fog the Engine
1. Treat the fuel system with Polaris Carbon Clean, following the
instructions on the can. Run the engine for several minutes so the
Carbon Clean reaches the injector. Turn the engine off.
2. Re move the spark plug and add 2-3 table spoons of Premium 4
Synthetic 0W40 engine oil. To access the plug holes, use a section of
clear 1/4” hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle fille d with the
pre -mea sure d amount of oil.
NOTE: Do this carefully! If you miss the plug holes, oil will drain from
the spark plug cavities into the hole at the front of the cylinder
head, and appear to be an oil leak.
3. Re install the spark plug. Torque to 18 ft. lbs. (24 Nm).
4. Apply dielec tric grea se to the inside of the spark plug ca p and
re install the ca p onto the plug.
5. Turn the engine over seve ra l times. Oil will be forc e d in and around
the piston rings and ring lands, coating the cylinder with a protec tive
film of fre sh oil.
6. If Polaris fuel system additive i s not used, the fuel tank, fuel lines,
and injector should be completely drained of gasoline.
