I discovered there is a break away internal tab in the 16 oz. container so you can pour it in fast and bypassing the measuring cup port. Open the lid and push a clean screw driver directly down in the center of the cap opening.

It's not something we've been advised as a mandatory step in the fog process. It could be added in the next update though. We like to plus our videos over time and that would be a good add if Yamaha does indeed recommend this step for winter storage. We polled a few pros before shooting this video and made sure to hit all the high points. Always willing to learn more though, especially from someone as thorough and experienced as you Capt. Leon!!!

@@JetBoatPilot thanks for the compliment, but I’m just plugging along figuring it out just like the rest of us, but we can all learn from each other. Yamaha tech bulletin WCA2011-003 provides for fogging the combustion chamber directly. To me it may do more good than fogging through the intake track which is burning up the oil as applied. But doing both is best in my opinion. I demonstrate it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e7aPa5lhyaibmpc.html

I live in Oklahoma just bought a 18 fsh we get a lot of nice winter days here though. Do I really need to fog the boat if I may take it out in the winter months? It’s stays in my shop when not in use. Also,when you do fog them can I just take them out after winter and run it at the start of boating season?
@JetBoatPilot
@JetBoatPilot Жыл бұрын
Mainly you fog if you're boating in salt water or if you're going to store the boat without running at least once per month. If you plan to run at least once per month you may not need to fog.

This is an unrelated question, but one I’ve had difficulty finding a solution. I noticed on the side of your boat in this video your chrome model marking at the base of the tower is missing a “2”. I have a ‘21 195S that doesn’t have those chrome letters, though later years do. Any idea where I can find those? I’ve looked at Partzilla and other similar sources but no luck. I’m afraid asking a dealer would cost an arm and a leg.

For running the cooling water in the engine you want to turn the engine on first, then the hose. When shutting down, turn off the water first. Rap the throttles a few times to blow out any excess water from the system and then shut off the engines last.

We simply run the engine/s hard on the first run of the year and then change the spark plugs after the run. Fill with super unleaded gas on the first run too just in case there was any degradation of fuel quality in the tank. Then you're good to go for the season (unless you need an oil change...if so do your oil change after the first run as well since the oil will be nice and warm)

We've since changed the kit to include a 1 gallon bottle of Fuel Med RX. The ratio is one oz per gallon of fuel. The Fuel tank in this boat holds 75 gallons so you'd need at minimum 75 oz of fuel med. With the gallon size you'd have enough to treat a full tank once plus a little extra.
