PWC Winterization on a 2017 Yamaha VX Deluxe TR-1 Engine (Technique will work on any PWC)

Описание: I have included photos of the most common PWC makes and models so you can make sure your skis engine and exhaust system is safe from freezing.
And yes, I know plenty of people who never winterize, or just "blow out" their skis and are fine, but I also usually end up replacing several engines every year that had just enough water remaining that it froze and cracked the cylinder sleeves because they were improperly winterized.

Seadoo uses a closed loop cooling system for the engines, but the exhaust is cooled with freshwater, so the exhaust manifold and waterbox are at possible freeze risk, I still recommend running a little antifreeze through them just to be safe.

This is the way I've been winterizing PWCs for over 6 years, and I have not had a single issue with any of them.
