MAINTENANCE

Extended Storage

Engine Protection

Proper preparation of the engine and fuel system is vital to the preven-

tion of rust and corrosion on precision engine parts during storage.

Whenever the machine is stored for a period of more than 60 days, the

engine must be fogged with fogging oil. Follow the engine fogging

instructions provided on the container.

TIP: Do not spray fogging oil into the plenum. Remove the plenum and spray the

fogging oil into the boost box. Continue spraying until the engine stops.

Always add Premium Carbon Clean or a fuel conditioner/stabilizer to

the fuel tank. Follow the instructions on the container, running the

engine for five minutes to get additives through the entire fuel system.

Top off with fresh fuel. Do not allow the snowmobile to run out of fuel.
