f. Trouble shooting
g. Storage
Use the following procedure to properly prepare the engine for extended periods of nonuse.
These steps are intended to protect the engine during storage and simplify the out of stor-
age servicing procedure.
Use a flushing attachment to prevent engine or water pump damage if you operate the en-
gine on a trailer or dolly.
When using a flushing attachment, always remove engine's propeller before starting
engine to prevent accidental contact with moving propeller.
1. Follow the directions on a can of Storage Fogging Oil and spray oil through the throttle plate.
2. Stop engine and remove all spark plugs. Spray Storage Fogging Oil into the spark plug holes.
3. Pull starter to distribute the fogging oil throughout the cylinders. Install and torque the spark plugs.
Leave spark plug leads disconnected to prevent accidental starting during storage.
4. If the engine is removed from the boat, examine all hardware you loosened or removed. Re-
place damaged or missing parts with genuine Raider
parts or equivalent. These fasteners are
made of special materials to resist weakening and rusting.
Do not substitute these fasteners
with nuts and bolts which look the same. Using the wrong nuts and bolts may result in
sudden, unexpected loss of engine control.
