How much antifreeze?

[Dirtybird]

Should I run through my sit down? Or how long can I run this on fogging oil before it starts to damage? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

You can run the fogging oil as long you want, the more the better. Usually I start the motor, give it a little bit of throttle and spray down the carbs until the motor stalls. Then I fire it up and do it again until it stalls, then pop the spark plugs and drop some mystery oil down the cylinders with a little bump of the motor following.

As for the antifreeze, you dont need much, as soon as you see pink (or whatever color you have) coming out, that means its gone through.

This is usually my general sequence...
Add stabillizer to fuel
Flush motor on the hose for a few minutes
Flush with antifreeze through the system, and dump some down the lines after.
Fog motor the way I described in the beginning.
Pull the battery, tighten everything, lube everything up nice, and spray everything down with a silicone spray. Crack the seats and put her away.

ok well I hate this. How am I gonna get antifreeze into the engine with the type of set up on the gp's? I think I am gonna just take it in. :bs2: The antifreeze is just trickling in. Antifreeze is starting to come out of the bottom, but nothing out of the side..... How long does it take to cycle? :frown:

Just blow the water out .you don't need antifreeze in there .I had a 98 gp and never used antifreeze even when I left it outside .Start it a bunch of times and rev it up to get most of the water out and you'll be all set .
Water can only damage stuff if it's full 100% .Fog motor like described above

Thats good that it trickles out the bottom. You dont need to worry about it comingout the side, those hoses dont need it. However, I do disconnect the line that goes out as the pisser, and drop some down there too and blow through, not a lot thoguh.
