Yamaha Certified Jet Boat Winterization Guidelines - What you really need to do! 

Another well done video Leon! Thanks for the tips!!

A great informational for long term storage! Like you said, do what the manual says and then what makes you comfortable. It’s your toy, you do whatever you feel is necessary to make sure you have a future season without headache and worry!

I'm lucky as my AR195 fits perfectly in one of my garage bays. The garage isn't heated but I do run a small electric heater out there that always keeps it well above freezng. Of course I do the regular maintenance following the recommended schedule, oil change, plugs, use a fuel stabilizer, battery tender, etc. This past summer was my 3rd on this boat and it starts up on the first try each and every time. Always enjoy your videos!

Leon ... no need to remove the air intake tube and airbox cover .. just spray directly in the breather hose port .. you are creating a stronger vacum by doing it this way , delivering the fogging oil better to the internals

Oh, I almost forgot! Great video Captain Leon, you never disappoint. BTW, you forgot to show us the coolant flushing part.

Yamaha take note. Looks like a nice update. Thanks Captain Leon!

Thanks Captain Leon for another great episode. Here in CA dont need “long term storage” unless the boat really needs it.

Great video Cap'n.

These toys we buy aren't cheap. It would be foolish not to take good care of them. I love your vids Leon. Keep it up!

another thing ... just install the new plugs at the end of fogging session .. so your ready for next season and dont have to pull them again .. remb 18.5 ftlbs

Captain Leon, Rookie question, but we are who we are. What size socket is the spark plug socket? Thank you for all your help on the channel.

It's important to use antifreeze in the cockpit drains (don't know about this particular model, having a drain line freeze and crack in a Yamaha Exciter can ruin your day). Also, the antifreeze should be pumped in around the bilge pump and allow the pump to pump it out. Then there is the trailer...

Hi Capin Leon, first of all, I find your RU-vid channel very informative and enjoyable. I am an owner of Yamaha 195FHS, purchased in 2022, and I also live in Long Island. Could you please let me know where I can purchase the spray nozzle staw? The one I bought from Amazon doesn't fit the Yamaha Fogging Oil Spray, so I couldn't use it. Can you provide information on where to buy the straw as shown in the video? By the way, last year, while performing fogging oil with a short straw, it got sucked into the throttle body. ^^) Also, the 2022 model has a pan right in front of the throttle body, so when I turn on the engine, the fogging oil sprays out immediately. In such a case, how should I apply to fog oil?

Great video. Two questions: 1-) is Fogging the engine recommended even if you don’t winter store the boat? and how often? ( I boat all year in florida). 2-) how much do you spray the engine air intake? When do you know when to stop? Tks

This is excellent. I have a 2023 GP1800R HO. Same engine. Would you trust the dealer to be this thorough as the manual and service bulletin calls for? Where did you acquire the technical service bulletin? Im assuming you paid to download the service manual from somewhere online? Considering doing this myself so I know it's done correctly

Captain Leon, can you share a link to where you got the fogging oil extension hose?

That Pink RV/pool antifreeze is not for the use in an engine...and it states that on the container so not sure why you would use it and not use the proper antifreeze for engine use?

what about ar192 supercharged are we fogging the supercharged or the intake that you showing us here ?

How do you keep your engine bay so clean!

Where can I get a copy of the tech fogging bulletin?

If you turn the engine over without plugs, fuel is sprayed into cylinders without burning. Can this excess of old fuel left for several months in the cylinders cause some problems?

They think you dont have to use rv antifreese for these newer boats as if they dint have water cooling jackets thruought the engine and a waterbox filled with water in the exhaust system. YES YOU NEED TO USE RV ANTIFREEZE. Ive been winterizing, servicing and wrenching on skis, jet boats, outboards, inboards for over 15 years and none of these engines will allow all the water to drain entirely. If someone tells you that you dont need rv antifreeze, unless its a closed coolant loop system and not water-cooled - then dont listen to em. I promise you do 👍

When fogging the motor what would be different that I'd have to do for an AR195? Do I have more items I'd need to remove?

Why not just spray in into the breather tube? Open the throttle a bit, and suck it in. That's what I'm going to do...
