PREVENTATIVE CALENDAR

When Should You Service Your Outboard?

Texas lake conditions shift rapidly. Follow our structural seasonal playbook to maintain reliable drive mechanics and avoid costly high-season Grapevine Location bottlenecks.

Spring

PRE-LAUNCH INSPECTION

Prepare your outboard for trouble-free lake runs. Focus on batteries, fresh fuel lines, impeller sanity checks, and full fluid flushes.

CRITICAL MILESTONES:

Annual Maintenance Package

Battery load test & terminals cleaning

Steering system hydraulic fluid check

Summer

MID-SEASON PERFORMANCE CHECK

Intense heat and heavy tube-towing strain outboards. Monitor gear oil discoloration, inspect prop shafts for fishing line, and check water pressure.

CRITICAL MILESTONES:

Lower unit gear oil level inspect

Propeller removal & shaft grease

Water pump output volume test

Fall

WINTERIZATION & FUEL PREP

Leaving fuel to sit over winter destroys modern marine injection systems. Flush salt/lake deposits and coat internal engine blocks with fogging oil.

CRITICAL MILESTONES:

Complete cooling system fresh-water flush

Fuel system stabilizer treatment

Cylinder fogging oil application

Winter

THE OFF-SEASON REBUILD WINDOW

The best time for intensive care. Avoid the spring rush by scheduling complete powerhead rebuilds, cylinder machine work, and rigging retrofits.

CRITICAL MILESTONES:

Heavy-duty powerhead overhauls

Off-season gearcase reseals

Complete electronics retrofitting
