Winter Question

[GrungeGod494]

My blaster doesn't have the luck to be put in a heated garage for this winter, so I'm draining all the oil/gas out, which brings me to a question, How do I drain the oil from the oil injection? No I will not take it off, I don't like premixing gas, anyway, Will it be fine this winter? I'd imagine if it'd get really bad out, the shed would be around.....20 degrees. That won't hurt the quad at all will it?

I leave my quad outside all winter and ride it. I don't have anywhere to store it either. You are missing out if you don't go riding in the snow.

Thats friggin cold , thats gasket shrinking , case freezing tire rubber cracking cold , you would be best off starting it once a week and riding it , if even just in the yard , and plug the exhaust and intake between starts so little critters dont try to make a home in your bike. Cover it as well , and worse off , keep a light on in the shed , that will warm it up a bit in there , above freezing would be a good target .

No need to drain the fluids. Put some fuel stabilizer in the gas tank and cover the thing.

I was curious about the same thing...what kind of fuel stabilizer do you recommend??

 

[sheeblast]

ya dont drain the oil. fuel wont ice up at 32F, it is way low. same with oil.
any fuel stabilzer will work. i would just suggest in the spring, you drain everything and put in new fluids.
and like said before, plug any opens up, a mouse will try to get in there.

If it is only going to get to 20 degrees I wouldn't worry. Just ride like you normally would.
