Anything different than a carb model? Leave gas or drain? Anything to clean, no jets but injectors? They need any service? thanks r

Drain most of the gas, run with some stabil, grease and clean. That's all I have done over the past 4 years with my EFI.

I turn the key to the left and put a cover on it. Before the next riding season though I clean the clutches, lube front to back and replace worn items. I do start it at least once every couple of weeks and let her run for a minute just because I can't go without hearing it purr. 10,300 miles, ran like a top since day 1.

it is very important to have enough fuel in the tank to submerge the pump, and to use stabilizer. With all the additives in todays gas, it is important to use stabilizer any time the fuel will sit for 2 weeks or more. If the pump isn't submerged it will get varnish, and or sweat and corrode over the summer, making it junk. Besides with the way gas is going up, a full tank may be worth $200 in the fall

I USE FITCH FUEL CELLS IN MY 3 SLEDS. NEVER HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HARD STARTING SINCE THE FITCH IS IN THE TANKS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,HA;
I add some fuel stabilizer and grease the machine at the end of the season. Once a month or so I start and run it for a couple of minutes. Starts on the second pull everytime.

What I do is;
1. Fill the tank.
2. Add Sea Foam.
3. Run the sled until the running boards are warm.
4. Shut off, and top off the tank.
5. Pull the plugs, spray engine fog in the cylinders.
6. Turn the engine over a couple times with the clutch.
7. One more shot of fogging oil, put the plugs back in.
8. Grease all zerks.
9. I also wash it, making sure there is no salt on it.
10. Pull the belt, and put it back in the trailer.

At the very least its a good idea to start the machine once a month for a minute to two. The gas now a days is crappy and can gum up real quick so stabilizer is a must yet the fuel rails are alway charged to good idea to run once in a while.
