I am new to PWC's and have a 1999 Yamaha XL1200 LTD. I understand that after each sesion on the lake I need to flush it with a hose and the attachment, then run the engine with the water off for about 10sec. to dry out the engine.
Am I on the right track so far?
That is what I have been doing and stored the PWC's in my garage. This last time I decided to start the waverunners (being told that once the engine is cooled it wont hurt it if runned for about 10sec w/out water), and a bunch of water came out from the intake grill and the jet nozzle area.
Is this normal or am I not running the PWC long enough after shutting the water off when flushing it?
If this is normal, is it ok to try to take as much water out through several start upf?
