i was puttin around in a creek today....and then oh no it droped down about 5 foot...it died...of course...i drug it out and drained the air box out and she fired right up....drained the oil and it was watery as all hell....so i changed it..1 time..and i know i need 2 do it again but does anyone know how many times wore i should do it???

 

From what I have read, at <u>LEAST</u> three times, or until it does not look milky when you drain it, then I would do it another time or two just to be on the safe side.

 

Couple times should do it depending on how much water! After 2nd time may see a little watery film around top of oil tank and dipstick,if you do then change oil and filter after about 10 hrs. May have to burn a little oil and filters,but cheaper than replacing engine parts.On heavily swamped machines I have have drained oil,removed valve cover,flushed valve train and filled tank with naptha or kerosene,pulled over several times with recoil,DONT start,drained throughly,poured oil over valve area,new filter and oil.

 

what do u mean when u say heavily swamped???

 

When there is about as much water as oil in oil tank! Plus take a sample of fuel in clear glass or cup,if water in in tank you will see it settle at bottom of container. If so then flush tank and carb also.

 

About the fuel, you'd have to take the sample from the lowest point in the system since that is where the water would settle.

Like OPT said, cheaper than replacing engine parts.
