-Fog your motor (search for proper procedure)
-Drain gas tank or fill to top with stabilized fuel (stabil for ethanol)
-If filling tank, run the ski for a few minutes to get the stabilized fuel in the carbs
-grease all fittings
-coat all metal parts in fluid film
-for extreme climates, flush cooling system with antifreeze

That's the basics of it from what I recall.... Down in Texas we don't really ever winterize

PWC today has plenty of topics on winterizing as well

Thanks guys. When you say coat metal in fluid film, is that just spaying on WD40?

Thanks again!

Yeah, pretty much, but I wouldn't use WD-40. WD-40 tends to evaporate in a few days while degreasing the part at the same time. It can actually accelerate rust formation.

Pretty sure you can find some in Canada. If not, there has to be some sort of mist oil you can use. just don't use wd40
