I have a 2002 honda rancher 350 that was flooded like the rest of our lease during the release. I have drained oil and installed a new carburetor. I keep putting oil in and filter and run for about 2 minutes and then drain oil. I have changed it 8 times and still every time I drain it, it comes out full of water. Any tips on speeding this process? I have paid more for oil than I have for a new carb. Thanks in advance!

there is no real short cut that I know of that wont cut corners, try not to run it for very long between flushes, as with water comes other contaminates that can and will scar the cylinder wall and cause the rings to not seat, and loss of copression and blow by. Once you feel you are 100% on getting everything cleaned out run it for a day, then change everything again including diff fluids as they are probably milked as well. also if it was in deep water you may want to unplug every electrical connection and coat them with dialectric grease to help prevent corrosion at connecting points. Good luck

We had it lifted front end to drain tail pipe and I have pulled spark plug and turned over the motor to clear top until no more water came out. Now with the oil drain open I pull the rope just enough to turn over motor and more dumps out. Should I keep at it this way or try to flip it?
