Winterizing a Honda

[WillyBWright]

Can't find winterizing information in any of our shop manuals. Is there anything different about winterizing the Hondas that is unusual? Mostly I need to know if they need to be drained, or if they are self-draining like regular outboards.

I have a four stroke honda 90 2004 and it is self draining. If you need more info let me know

Most if not all outboards self drain when tilted down. Go to the FAQ section here at IBoats and look at "Winterizing"

Re: Winterizing a Honda

Thanks guys. Actually I've winterized literally thousands of boats. But never a Honda. At least not one of the big ones that use modified car motors. I went thru the shop manuals as I am now working for a Honda dealer. But I was astonished to see absolutely nothing about off-season storage in the factory manuals. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. I'll check the FAQs to see if they're specifically mentioned. Thanks again!

Owners manuel has six (6) pages on it, under storage.
