I live in northern climes and, in spite of my love for boating, have to store my motors for about six months of the year. I’ve had good luck with 2 stroke carb motors running them dry before storage, no plugged jets. This is my first year with an EFI motor, a 20 hp Tohatsu. I was wondering if I should run it dry or leave full of stabilized fuel? Also the manual makes some issue of draining the fuel separator before storage. (What ever that is? it’s not the fuel filter.) turbotod, you got me thinking about this with your thoughtful reply to the EFI vs carb post, when you discussed motor storage issues. I like the idea of running a motor periodically, and no doubt this would keep it healthy. But in my case, storing inside but not heated, with temps dropping below zero, makes this impractical. So at this point I’m thinking that just leaving it full of stabilized fuel, removing those covers below the cowling and locating and draining that fuel separator thingy, makes sense, but would appreciate hearing from you EFI owners.
