I have a 2004 Glastron Sx 195 with a Volvo Penta 5.0 GL-E So far what Ive done for winterizing Is
I Ran the Engine with Muffs On For about 30 Minutes, Then I Proceeded to take the Flame arrestor off, and Fog the Engine Through the Carb (while Running) Until It smoked and the Engine Stalled out, Then I took the 2 Plugs off the Engine Block on each Side, & The 2 Plugs for the Exhaust Manifolds Until there was no water Leaking, then I disconnected the Hose to the Raw Water Pump, and Both Hoses to the Exhaust manifolds, Then I pour a Little bit of antifreeze On each of the Disconnected hoses till saw it Coming out of the Plugs, Then I put the Plugs Back It both Engine Block & Exhaust Manifolds, Then I filled up both Exhaust Manifolds With Rv & Marine Antifreeze, And I also Filled up the Engine through the Water pump hose. & I also Replaced Spark Plugs
Now I still have to do the Oil Change and grease Gimbal, And gear oil, but im Waiting on my tools to get here.
I want to know if so far Ive been Doing the Right Steps, In regards to Draining? I don't want to deal with Problems In the Spring. Thanks All Answers Appreciated!
