Spray Bombardier Lube™ lubricant or
equivalent, in spark plug holes.
To prevent fuel to be injected and also
to cut the ignition at the engine crank-
ing, proceed as follows.
While engine is stopped, fully advance
throttle lever and HOLD for cranking.
Crank the engine a few turns to distrib-
ute the oil on cylinder wall.
Apply anti-seize lubricant on spark plug
threads then reinstall them.
NOTE: Prior to inserting the ignition coil
to its location, apply some Molykote 111
grease (P/N 413 707 000) around the
seal area that touches the spark plug
hole. After installation, ensure the seal
seats properly with the engine top sur-
face.
Reinstall ignition coils. Reconnect igni-
tion coil connectors.

ward until it snaps.
Wipe up any residual water from the
engine.

Engine Cooling System
Antifreeze to be replaced every 100
hours or once per season to prevent
antifreeze deterioration.
The antifreeze replacement and a densi-
ty test should be performed by an autho-
rized Sea-Doo dealer.
CAUTION: Improper antifreeze mix-
ture might allow freezing of the liq-
uid in the cooling system if vehicle is
stored in area where freezing point is
reached. This would seriously dam-
age the engine. Failure to replace the
antifreeze for storage may allow its
degradation that could result in poor
cooling when engine will be used.
Boat Cleaning/Repair
Wash the body and the trailer with soap
and water solution (only use mild deter-
gent). Rinse thoroughly with fresh wa-
ter. Remove any marine organisms
from the hull.
CAUTION: Never clean apparent fi-
berglass and plastic parts with strong
detergent, degreasing agent, paint
thinner, acetone, etc.
Stains may be removed from seats
and fiberglass with Knight’s Spray-
Nine
†
or the equivalent.
If repairs are needed to the body or to
the hull contact your dealer. For paint
touch up to mechanical parts use
Bombardier spray paint. For minor
gelcoat repairs, a Bombardier repair kit
is available. Replace damaged labels/
decals.
Clean the bilge with hot water and de-
tergent or with bilge cleaner. Rinse
thoroughly. Unscrew drain plugs and
lift front end of sport boat to complete-
ly drain bilge.
Finalizing Storage Preparation
Apply a non-abrasive wax to body.
The engine storage cover should be
left partially opened during storage
(detach the gas shocks from the cover
to prevent full opening). Remove stor-
age tray. Place it on deck. This will
avoid engine compartment condensa-
tion and possible corrosion.
