Oklahoma freeze risk for personal watercraft

Oklahoma freezes in short spells: Oklahoma City has about 72.2 freezing nights but only 7.2 days that stay below 32°F, and those overnight freezes are what crack a personal watercraft that was not drained.

Winterizing a personal watercraft before the Oklahoma freeze

  1. Flush the cooling system, then run antifreeze through the flush port.
  2. Blow trapped water out of the exhaust.
  3. Stabilize a nearly full tank and run the engine.
  4. Fog the engine if the manual calls for it; grease the pump.
  5. Pull the battery to a maintainer and prop the seat open.
  6. Book move-in before October 26.
