Maintenance
After Winterization – All Outboards
IMPORTANT: Gearcase lubricant is thick
and clear. Do not confuse this with engine oil,
which may normally appear on the skeg after
performing the long-term (winterization) stor-
age procedure.
1)
After the outboard shuts itself off, turn key
switch OFF. (For tiller models, remove
emergency stop clip / key switch.) Do not
start the outboard again after winterization
is completed.
Anticorrosion anodes — Check condition.
Refer to Anti-Corrosion Anodes on page
49.
2)
If winterizing on a trailer, turn off water
and detach garden hose. Grease propeller
shaft splines with recommended lubricant,
and re-install propeller.
IMPORTANT: Do not run your outboard—
even for a brief start-up—without supplying
water to it.
IMPORTANT: When winterizing is finished,
leave the outboard in vertical position long Following Engine Starting, Tiller Models on
enough to completely drain the powerhead. If page 20 , or Remote Control Models on
equipped, disconnect the speedometer pick- page 24 start the outboard. If the outboard
up at the upper connection and blow all water was auto-winterized, it will emit a puff of
out of the hose using air pressure of 25 psi or smoke on the first start of the season. Let it
less. Reconnect speedometer pickup after all idle while you:
the water has been removed.
Observe running quality. If poor, refer to
Troubleshooting on page 55 or see your
Dealer.
3)
Top off oil tank.
Confirm water pump operation. Water must
flow from the water pump indicator in a steady
stream. If it does not, shut off the outboard
and investigate. Refer to Engine Overheat-
ing on page 41.
Stop the outboard and check the fuel system
for leaks.
PRE-SEASON CHECK
Extra engine oil is used during the winteriza-
tion procedure. Some excess oil may appear
on the skeg below the gearcase area. This is
normal.
Avoid potential oil stains by placing a shop
towel or suitable container under the propel-
ler and skeg for the duration of the storage.
WARNING
Failure to check for fuel leakage could
allow a leak to go undetected, resulting
in fire or explosion.
Remove your outboard from storage and pre-
pare it for a season of reliable service by per-
forming a general check and a few preventive
maintenance procedures.
Examine all loosened or removed hardware.
Replace damaged or missing parts with
Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or equiva-
lent. Check the gearcase for leakage. If leak-
age is evident, the gearcase seals should be
replaced. See your Dealer.
