Then make dead sure you have a manual before you drain it. Simply because no one here can see your engine and know if something is different than most. Perhaps you have a closed cooling system installed....no mention of draining the heat exchanger. How about power steering cooler...do you have power steering?? Is your engine plumbed into a heater of some sort?? That would have to be drained also.<br /><br />Did you realize there is more to winterizing than just draining the block? What about the oil change and oil and fuel filter changes....what about the drive and ujoints???? Have you done them already?I have a 92 Mercruiser 3.0L and want to make dead sure I know where all the drain plugs are for winterization.
Yes.....<br /><br />If you have power steering, then you have a cooler......<br />It'll be mounted somewhere on the Incomming Water Line, which runs from the outdrive to the T-stat Housing.................<br />Find it,+ Disconnect the water hose from it... Either end.. doesn't matter.....<br /><br />I took a Preetty Good Beating on another forum for saying that I didn't think that Seloc Manuals were the Best in the World a couple months ago..... <br />So I'll just say,<br />I think the Best Manuals ava. for Your engine/drive are written by the Engineers that Build them........<br />Factory Manuals are the Only way to go......I understand that the drive should be pulled every year and the u joints greased along with gear and crankcase oil. Fuel filter will be done in the spring. I believe there is two right? One is the water and fuel separator and there is a filter on the carb correct?
I would like more information on manuals
