Hello
I am about to crank up my 2008 DF200 after it's been sitting for a year or so on it's side (the port side). Anything I should do before cranking it up? I cleaned out the intake screen, and changed the oil and filter. I know for a mercruiser you should first prime the oil system (as per service manual) with the starter prior to startup after sitting a while. Anything similar for this engine? I know on my seadoo there is an engine drown mode where it does not inject fuel for purposes of winterizing, changing oil, etc. Also when I drained the old oil out it was pretty much empty, maybe had half a quart in it, I put about 7 in it after draining the old stuff out.
