the winter with a big outboard motor apply a motor flusher or ear muffs which most peo- pie call it because of the items appearance to the water intake with running water into the motor flusher start the engine with the fuel stabilizer added to your tank and run it at idle for around five to 10 minutes after that timeframe dis- connect the fuel line and let the motor run itself out another item that should be maintained is your spark plugs each plug should be replaced with a new one and storage oil should then be applied into the vacated cylinders crank the engine a couple of times to distribute oil into the cylinders trie lower unitoil should also be drained and replaced if the- oil has a- milky appearance chances are water has found its way inside in these instances its best to
