    Bypassing the Out-Drive to Winterize

    That's what I thought--Impeller frying. OK I will do ith the old way--the reason I wanted to move away from the rabbit ears to the out-drive is because i waste so much antifreeze pissing out the sides of the muffs. Thanks for the quick insight.

    Bypassing the Out-Drive to Winterize
