sand or other particles in it and that it is not ob-
structed so that water can leave the engine. Clean
hose and fitting as necessary.

must be free to flow out, otherwise water
could be trapped in engine. Should water
freeze in engine, severe damage will occur.
Check engine drain hose for obstructions.

Fuel System
Sea-Doo Fuel Stabilizer (P / N 413 408 600) can be
added in fuel tank to prevent fuel deterioration
and carburetor gumming. Follow manufacturer’s
instructions for proper use.
NOTE :
Fuel stabilizer should be added prior
engine lubrication to ensure carburetor pro-
tection against varnish deposit.

sive under certain conditions. Always
work in a well ventilated area. Do not smoke or
allow open flames or sparks in the vicinity. Al-
ways wipe off any fuel spillage from the water-
craft. Always turn the fuel valve to OFF
position when storing the watercraft.
Cooling System Flushing and Engine
