Location: Minneapolis, MN | Since you are new, I would suggest talking to your local service/dealer and consulting your motor manual. You will get a lot of opinions here. Here's a couple items to put on your list. Depending on the type of motor, you will have to fog or oil the cylinders. Change the lube in your lower unit, which is a DIY project if you would like to do it. Remove the prop, check for any fishing line around the shaft, lube the shaft and check for any wobble or play in your prop shaft. Also greese the balls on the tips of your trim pistons. If you have greased bearings on your trailer, this is a good time to have them inspected and replaced as needed. Check the air pressure in your trailer tires and spare before storage. Put dryer sheets in all your compartments and stuff a sheet or two in the holes for wire access, etc. to keep any rodents out. Check the water level in your batteries and add only distilled water as needed. Give them a full charge and maintain it if you can while in storage. |
