I own a recently rebuilt 1997 Johnson 175 HP OceanRunner. Since it still has less than 10 hour on it, the gas to oil ratio is still at 25 to 1.<br /><br />Here is what i want to do to winterize it.<br /><br />First, i will stabilize the fuel system.<br /><br />Second, I will defog the engine. I was told to first spray the solution into the carb's, then turn the engine off, remove the spark plugs and shoot inside the plug cylinders & turn the engine over (w/out the plugs)?<br /><br />Does this sound right to you? Also, since my engine has an aluminum head how long should I wait for the engine to cool off before I remove the plugs (one time I removed a plug from a hot head and I stripped the cylinder head)!<br /><br />Please advise.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Peter<br /><br />PS At the end I will also remove the battery and electronics.
