winterizing 1997 90hp evinrude o/b question

[ry2577]

Hoping for someones help...Do I fog this engine by spraying through the carbs(while running) or is it better to spray in the plug holes and then rotate the flywheel after a few times?

I have heard conflicting answeres and would love to know the truth.

*no vro pump.

Thanks, Ryan

I did both on mine. Sprayed oil into the carb until it died. I then pulled the plugs, sprayed fogger into the plug holes, rotated the flywheel by hand a couple of turns and put the plugs back in.

Ryan, Your motor should have a schraeder valve (think bicycle tire valve) on the erichener, under the airbox. If so, you have the choice to use the fogging oil that screws onto the Schraeder Valve, or spray thru the carbs.

BTW - I did my V6 with a single spray can of fogging oil. I got her smoking pretty good, w/o a problem.
