1999 200 Ficht Model E200FPLEEN Question-I know about changing gear lube, fogging engine, cleaningfuel separator, changing oil filter, indexing plugs, de-carbon in the spring,fuel stabilization, is there something I have missed for winter shut down and spring start-up?
sounds like you have it covered , how has that motor done for you ??
pull prop to inspect and lube
grease fittings, put film of grease on steering ram and on trim rams
store vertical if possible

A lot of good advice has been given... I would also add unplug/drain the water pressure gague so it wont freeze.
This may be overkill but I also run some marine antifreeze through the bilge pumps.
Thank you all for the advice, not shut down yet, have a couple more tournaments to do and then call it quits. This motor has done a great job for me. It is on a 21 ft TR21 Triton 1997, one of the first ones Earl built. Thanks again for the tips and I love this website
