    decarb question??

    Decarb and new plugs before winter storage or after? And wat else should I change on a yearly basis? Fuel filter? Oil filter? Water separator? I only use xd 100 oil as well.

    IMO do the decarb before storage, to get all the crap out before she sits for a while.

    I am by no means an expert - but if you are only using XD100 - not sure I see the point of decarbing. Maybe the guru's will be around in a bit and can clarify.

    If you run XD-100 no need to decarb, I would change the fuel filter and l/u oil and clean the exhaust pressure sensor.

    I'd run a can of fogging oil through it if you are putting it to sleep for the winter.
