If you have a water seperating filter, that should have also been changed, make sure that does not leak either. Other than that, just check all the fluid levels before starting, including the drive oil level, and after starting carefully monitor the water temp and oil press levels on gauges, and go back and make sure the new oil filter does not leak. Well for one thing I always wait until we know there will be no more freezing temps, here in NY that is usually mid April, and if I do run it, I am prepared to drain it right away if the temps will get close to freezing even for 1 night. This is my second year of owning a boat but my first time having to prepare a boat after winter storage and I didn't want to mess anything up.Regards,Steve The dealership gave me the battery to store and charge, changed the engine oil and filter, changed the gear oil, fogged the engine as well as flushed the engine.What do you all suggest for the first start and use of this engine? I don't want to damage the engine by acident and I want to take care of it the best I can.Thank you all in advance for your excellent advice and recommendations. After the first run in the water I should bring her in and have the plugs changed since the fogging oil will probably have coated and foiled the plugs.All that seems pretty simple but I wanted to check with all the pros here and ask, what is the proper way to get your engine ready for the boating season after a winterization has been performed and after long term storage for the winter? My engine, a Mercury 4.3 liter V-6 (carbed) was properly winterized by the dealership prior to being taken in for indoor storage. I was told to simply reconnect the battery (it has been on a trickle charger all winter), start her up and let her warm up. In cases where an ordered item becomes unavailable we will notify you by e-mail.As I type this looking out my window it's snowing and they are saying by tomorrow we could have anywhere between 9 an 21 inches of snow (Omaha, NE)! So why am I thinking about starting my boat?I stopped by my dealership yesterday to say hi and ask them if there was anything special I needed to do the first time I started my engine after winter storage.
