Treat the fuel system with POLARIS Carbon Clean. Follow the instructions on the container. Start the engine. Allow it to idle for several minutes so the Carbon Clean reaches the injectors. Stop the engine. 2. Remove the spark plugs and add 2-3 tablespoons of engine oil. To access the plug holes, use a section of clear 1/4" hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled with the premeasured amount of oil. Do this carefully! If you miss the plug holes, oil will drain from the spark plug cavities into the hole at the front of the cylinder head, and appear to be an oil leak. 3. Reinstall the spark plugs. Torque to specification. See page 68. 4. Apply dielectric grease to the inside of each spark plug cap and reinstall the caps onto the plugs. 5. Turn the engine over several times. Oil will be forced in and around the piston rings and ring lands, coating the cylinder with a protective film of fresh oil. 6. If POLARIS fuel system additive is not used, fuel tank, fuel lines, and injectors should be completely drained of gasoline. Storage Area/Covers Be sure the storage area is well ventilated. Cover the vehicle with a genuine POLARIS cover. Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow enough ventilation to prevent condensation, and may promote corrosion and oxidation. 88

use a section of clear 1/4” hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled with the pre-
measured amount of oil.
Do this carefully!
If you miss the plug holes, oil will drain from
the spark plug cavities into the hole at the front of the cylinder head, and appear to be an
oil leak.
