HOW TO PROFESSIONALLY WINTERIZE A PERSONAL WATERCRAFT JETSKI ENGINE

[@Omnipotant_1]

Normally I view dealer services as a rip off, but I’d pay this guy if I lived nearby. Great job

[@divyaboy]

Probably the best winterization I've ever watched, Your the Man I wish they all did it that way That was Spot On Bro That's better than when it came from the factory

[@divyaboy]

Excellent video very professional I worked alongside a lot of Sea-Doo mechanics and could not believe what they would do

[@USMCghost]

Excellent tutuorial. You are a consumate professional. Nice to see top quality. I'm a shade tree mech and usually pretty broke, so this is life changing for me. Thank you so much.

[@frankfazio9024]

Awesome, very complete detail on winterizing a jetsky

[@blahblahfuckfuck]

This is a proper winterising job. 101% top job and great tools too.

[@mikesoares5869]

Awesome job!! Best video by Far I’ve seen in a long time Thanks for the info very much appreciated

[@MMULLEN1990]

Great video. Just one thing. You don't have to flush out the exhaust with antifreeze. The manual says you can use compressed air to blow out the exhaust.

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Yeah I'm sure five years later you know why telling a seadoo trained technician something that the manual said to people that didn't know how something that was generally frowned on now. For a reason

[@RY4NP]

very professional, and you didn't just slap your way through the service. Nice

[@antoniobennettsr.4703]

Great step by step information, and good job to your video guy keeping everything in camera view. Cudos on the post about needing to upgrade my tool arsenal!!!

[@jeromewatts5400]

Excellent walk through each step, congrats on a job well done.

[@junehayward9936]

wow thank you so much........finally someone who knows what he's doing..... I need more tools

[@dannyperez6194]

You are the best im going to take your advice. Now i know how winterize a jet ski.

[@spiderman8662]

great video and i learned alot from it....thank you for taking the time to show the correct way of doing this....awesome info indeed!

[@therattyfire5468]

Some good practical heads up advice for anyone wanting to save a lot of beer tokens, thankyou I will be putting into practise your advise on my son in laws Seadoo GTX, rather than let him pay £200+ to someone for about an hours work.

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

An hours work is your stupidity not the dealers.

[@czarandmaeve]

just out of curiosity, why put lock tite on the 2 screws holding the fuel rail down? im guessing number 1 that its semi permanent lock tite and possibly because of the amount of shock and vibration that the water craft sees over the season?

[@gggromay]

The manual reads for flushing "Run the engine for about 20 sec at fast idle form 4000 to 5000rpm. NOTICE: Never run engine for longer then 2 minutes, drive line seal has no cooling when craft is out of water" Forget the suggested 20 sec, you definitely run it past the 2 minutes max hooking up the computer and running the diagnostics while the engine was running...

[@MrMedicAdnan]

Very nice video. Master at work.

[@SteveHuzz]

Awesome video! Thank you very much, very professional!

[@manstersr]

Shouldn't you shoot fogger into the cylinders when you were done with the compression test?

[@lenovo762]

Yes, but he fogged the engine through the injectors

[@jamiobazilio2816]

Very cool good I lack these tools of first world

[@lodwill5116]

So I can start the motor for just a second. Just to see if it runs. Without hooking up water. Just for a second,?? Is that right😮

[@OutbackOntario]

now thats a complete service, how much do you charge?

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Probably 3 hours at $100 or more an hour not including parts

[@manstersr]

Hey, you didn't call the customer about the wear ring did you? Just how critical is that? Seems to me it would be a minimal performance loss.

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

That's why he's doing what he does and you take yours to someone like him. Lmfao. How'd that tid bit up assumption work out for you?

[@alex124241]

Why no fogging oil sprayed into the cylinders? Or does it pass through them just as good through the fuel injector after cranking?

[@richardtigani1510]

Spraying though injector opening also lubricates intake valves

[@survivor06268]

I'm impressed. Great video. Just wa

[@DRenatod]

Great video thank you

[@carryokie9502]

On the compression test where you hold the gas so it won’t start, is this in a mode you change on the dash or is it just when you hold the gas down all the way it won’t turn over ?

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Full throttle

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Only when you hear the two fast beeps

[@douglister4288]

Any chance you can do a similar video for a Waverunner? I have a 2018 Waverunner VX Cruiser and there is not one credible winterization video on KZbin. Certainly would be appreciated.

[@richardtigani1510]

The winterization of a Yamaha is very similar.

[@douglister4288]

RICHARD TIGANI thanks for taking the time to reply. My question is around antifreeze, specifically can I hang a bottle of rv antifreeze above the waverunner with a hose adapter on the bottle connected to my proper Yamaha connector and start the engine, will gravity and the engine running suck in the antifreeze into machine or do I need the pressure like water which the house delivers. ? Does my question make sense?

[@richardtigani1510]

Doug Lister I like using pressure to pump antifreeze through system. The Yamaha do drain very well. But I’ve had them overheat with out good wayer or coolant pressure.

[@douglister4288]

RICHARD TIGANI ok so I will look for a water transfer pump, any recommendations for me? If not have a great day and thanks for your responses.

[@richardtigani1510]

Doug Lister a was down pump from a marine application will work perfect. They have plenty of pressure. Keep in mind that rv anti freeze does not have the cooling capabilities of water so don’t run for a long time. Just until you have antifreeze coming from all ports that normally have cooling wayer flowing from. Have a great day

[@BizLoanConsultantscom]

Do you need to get the engine up to a higher temperature for the thermostat to open before flushing with anti-freeze?

[@shortsmarine]

No

[@jojoaka420b]

How much you charge for a true and detailed winterizing?

[@FavStaR69]

This took 25 minutes after editing, I'm thinking 4 hours for a normal diy guy, I say run the antifreeze through, check the oil, stabilize the fuel and park it. If things don't seem normal then it's time to pull the pump and all the other stuff.

[@supremo2224]

Hi, good morning, I have a problem with my rxp215 2006. He is passing oil to the water system, check the oil radiator and it looks OK. I wonder if he has had a situation of this and if he can guide me on the matter. From already thank you very much.

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

No he won't guide you on the matter. You shouldn't work on things people much smarter than you wrote the manual for

[@metalmonstamikettt]

How much does it cost to have all this done by a pro? Thinking about buying a jet ski

[@guerraf117]

Mikeytyeahitsme they charge around 300 dollars on dealers in CT only for winterized it not including the oil change

[@divyaboy]

What we would use to keep the engine compartment dry I’m going back to 95 96 97 98 would be just a roll of paper towels. My first JetSki was a 1996 I’m sorry 1976 Kawasaki 400 then a 440 and then @ 550 I had a rental business on Cape Cod 1983 most work I’ve ever done in my life after that I never wanted to look at another one until 95 I bought a 95 750 ZXI then moved up to a 1997 GTX to me the GTX hull was the best rough water Hull ever created. I’m 63 now and in the next month I plan on purchasing Sea-Doo spark tricks installing 8600 map and go with a concord 11 - 17 and I weigh 225 so the 17 is a little redundant the norm is 11 - 16 I have to see what 1 Degree will do I road a 90 HP spark first time ever on one last year in five minutes I got the best workout I’ve gotten in 20 years and today I’m suppose to I have to wear knee braces (long story) I’m a Florida resident now but still have a summer home right on the water Mashpee Ma on Cape Cod I want to have a trixxs on the back of the car when I go back for 3 months I live in Altamonta Springs lot lake’s but I don’t see any activity and I want to break the ski in in FL would love to join a club down here....2nd to last time on a serious muscle craft I took my nephews Yamaha and almost killed my self I hit the water at 72mph lol. I could have sworn the trim on the older ski’s say the 1100’s you twisted the handle back to raze the bow anyway I was wrong almost dead wrong LMAO Sick my eye lids turned black for a week. Wow sorry about the Charles Dickens hr

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

That's hilarious I'm sure you learned a valuable lesson if you're still alive. In multiple important ways.

[@loulupero4147]

Purchase 1998 Bombardier; ski winterized last yr. ski starts without plugs, with plugs installed struggles start. Installed new battery. Any suggestions?. Starter need be replaced?

[@nickgangone8314]

you mean it turns over not start? And if it sounds like its struggling, it could be just a weak battery. Plugs out have low compression allowing the motor to turn with less restriction. With plugs in, it can have a higher restriction with the sealed engine at that time making airflow harder to escape the heads. Battery needs to be fully charge if you need more than a full crank to start a ski

[@saltcar]

Curious why the need for a compression test when no symptoms are present and you have the equipment to do cylinder balance?

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Preventative. Exactly why you're curious. Because you didn't do it. Symptoms means you were too stupid to check often.

[@saltcar]

@@krotchlickmeugh627 Yes. Cylinder balance can indicate this immediately, without removing any plugs

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

@@saltcar no it won't. And it's why the comp program isn't specifying compression or even a scale for it. Balance and psi comp are. Not always correlated.

[@lenovo762]

Why change the oil at the end of the season ??? Why not put fresh oil in at the beginning of the season ?

[@nickgangone8314]

i would think if by chance there is any water mixed with the oil and i rather have fresh oil sit in the ski when temps drop

[@PoundNetTexas]

That is a seadoo, it has a closed loop cooling system, it already had anti-freeze.

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

It's a flush to get as much water out as possible. Lmfao stop telling someone trained to do this what you dont know

[@stevesanderson8360]

Doesn't the shop manual suggest compressed air instead of antifreeze?

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

It was for people that dont know what kind of antifreeze or how to do the procedure. Like you.

[@tolgahk84]

I got a question maybe someone could explain to me, i just bought my first jet ski, its summer at the moment however when winter rolls around will i have to winterise my jet ski aswell? The coldest it gets where i am is about 8 degrees celcius with rare drops to about 4 degrees celcius, but these are on the extreme end of the scale, usually a winters day is about 15 degrees celcius round here. Thanks in advance

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

No one speaks dumb ass. Use the temp used in the country of the person you're asking. You found out by now and I'm not surprised at the outcome

[@paulosilveira4109]

yes very good. thank

[@956mik]

how much does this cost the customer?

[@BauJAhr78Television]

Good Movie !!

[@aaronmunson6210]

what do you use to "pump" the antifreeze into the jet ski? I understand the normal water flushing with garden hose because water is under pressure but trying to figure out a way to get pressurized antifreeze in there..any suggestions or alternatives? thanks.

[@fkrtkasap]

Süper anlatım teşekkür ederim usta

[@alex124241]

why is changing the oil at this point important If it's going to be changed again in the Spring?

[@JetSkiBuyFixPlaySellChannel]

You should change the oil at the end of the season in vehicles that sit for months so that contaminants from the engine running and convert to acid don't damage the bearings and other internals. No reason to change again when you take it out of hibernation unless you're a dealership that wants to sell more oil.

[@nickburson5229]

What does this service cost the customer?

[@richardtigani1510]

Any where from 250 to 350 depending on where you’re located

[@nickburson5229]

Thx man!!

[@esmi000]

During the winter you shouldn't even have fuel in, for the next season to use fresh fuel.

[@kensmith8886]

Fuel will not go bad over 1 winter, especially with fuel stabilizer in it.

[@esmi000]

Sorry but your wrong. Fuel will go bad in any weather condition If left over a period of time.

[@kensmith8886]

esmi000 Could ( if it were years) but it wont in 3 months of winter LMAO !!! Also filling the tank up keeps moisture out.

[@kensmith8886]

Don't get me wrong, long periods of storage you should drain all fuel and run it out if you have carbs and I spray WD40 in the carbs after running out fuel to keep out build up from left over gas and to keep them from drying out.

[@ralphlauren7903]

Gas wont go bad with stabilizer in it. Winter is only about 4 to 5 months. Fill it up and put stabil in it. I do the same thing to my motorcycle. Never any issues starting up at all

[@mg8340]

Does the jet pump take oil or grease?

should not run a 4 tec that long out of the water , bad for the carbon ring

[@5664788]

What about that new wear ring i was promised. Did you put anti seize on the spark plugs. kidding aside. I'm about to winterize my speedster 150,. same 4 tec 1503 is it not? I thought,.. & hear you don't have to antifreeze the closed loop non supercharged engine,..so now i'm confused,..the manual only says for the supercharged. Also ive heard 100 people say to also spray fogging oil in spark plug holes & the manual states that as well. This guys the best i've seen,..where the hell are ya,..when i need you the most,..why are you not in my yard doing my boat.,.get over here.
