Maintenance

Storage

Fog the Engine

1. Treat the fuel system with POLARIS Carbon Clean. Follow the instructions on the 

container. Start the engine. Allow it to idle for several minutes so the Carbon Clean 
reaches the injectors. Stop the engine.

2. Remove the spark plug and add 2-3 tablespoons of engine oil. To access the plug hole, 

use a section of clear 1/4” hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled with the pre-
measured amount of oil.

3. Reinstall the spark plug. Torque to specification. See page 113.

4. Apply dielectric grease to the inside of the spark plug cap. 

Do not reinstall the cap onto 

the plug at this step
