Optimax Winterizing question?
I have a 2005 200XS Opti that I picked up last fall. The manual says to pull the plugs and put some oil in the cylinders. I did this last fall but the plugs are a real pain in the butt to remove and I couldn't even get to the bottom left plug. Is there another alternative? Any way to jumper on the oil pump to lube the internals for storage or maybe run some premix through it before storing? I did read that fogging spray is a no-no for Opti's as it can gum up the injectors.

No fogging oil. If possible find some one with a ddt and run an oil pump prime than bark it off and shut it down.
