Storage Question

[johnkom]

Since one can start a PWC without water and no water stays in ski, why not start them every other week or so during the off (winter) season for 5-10 seconds? It would lubricate the cylinder walls and rest of the engine.

Downside??

downside is you would kill your battery after a few weeks and if you are in a cold environment , the battery would be toast

not to mention, starting for only 10 seconds would build-up condensation on the walls of the cylinder promoting rust in the cylinders

if your going to fire it up, you fire it up to get the motor warm to burn off condensation.

Battery would suffer. Best to just fog it usually.
