Will be winterizing for the first time on my 5.0 MPI 2003 model. It has the single point engine drain system. I'm wondering if possibly a passage or outlet connecting all these hoses together could ever block and prevent all of the system from draining. I can remember on my old Sea Ray V6 that after removing the brass plugs that I ran a small wire into each hole to be assured rust had not blocked the outlet. One year I can remember getting substantial amount of water out of one passage after pushing a small wire in the hole.
On a single point drain system I would have no idea if one section was blocked. Has anyone ever heard of a problem with this single point drain system??? It just seems like such a great idea but I feel like I'm cheating!! Man this is just too easy!!
