I have an 08 115 Opti and an 08 9.9 kicker.

I will be calling it quits for the year pretty soon, Hope to have the boat back out mid march or early april.

How necessary is it to winterize both of these engines? The Opti all that gets done I believe is some oil squirted in the pistons and an oil change in the LU. Same with the kicker but it also gets fogged....which generally leads to fouled carbs early the next season if I forget to run a little extra Seafoam in the first tank of gas.

So its gonna sit for 3 maybe four months...can I wait change the lower unit oil and oil in the kicker in the spring, and not worry about it in the next couple weeks, and just fish instead?

Thanks
