ok, trying to get my checklist and materials together for winterization.
Some Questions.
1. I have 2 carbed 7.4l motors that are fresh water cooled. IF I drain the engines by pulling plugs, about how much pink stuff in gallons may I need?
2. I have been running ethanol fuel with the starton additive to stabilize it. Should I use another dose of something over winter lay-up? Like sta-bil?
3. To drain and winterize westerbeke genie, Is it the same drain and fill through hoses as engines?
For the rest of my systems (fresh water, Head, Ice maker, AC, drains and thu hulls) am going to blow out and or suck out water first as to not dilute antifreeze that I put in.
Thanks in advance. This site rocks for help!
