New Owner 97 Challenger winterize / manual

[Charlie Boxer 5]

I picked up the basics from a thread on winterization but it appears that I need a manaul for more detail. Can anyone direct me where I can download full detail for Winterization?

Also, How long can I let the engine run connected with a hose sitting on trailer?

Check craigslist.com under boats to see if anyone is running any winterizing adds there. I found my mechanic on there. He was a 10yr seadoo certified mechanic and now does his own work. Charges $100 to winterize. Great deal if you ask me.

I wouldn't run the motor on the hose for more than 3-4 minutes or so.

you can get the manual from this site, just have to pay the premium membership fee...

as Dan said, don't idle more than 5 minutes. Also, don't rev up much, as the pump and carbon seal are not getting cooled and will eventually burn out/seize.
