Seems you might come up with a quick clamp on or slip in muffler just for flushing ...m

This will definetly be a test.
I would be interested in a "group" buy ......m

How about a couple of hoses into a bucket of water from the exhaust?

I use a product called SaltX (704) 391-8111. It is about the same as SaltAWay. I pulled my heads last spring and the heads look new. I flush after every run and then use the SaltX. Well worth the $ for the peace of mind.

I use it religously. I flush with fresh water for a while then switch on the salt-away and shut the motors off when the salt away is about 3/4 gone.

I also keep a spray bottle with a 50/50 mix of water and salt-away to get everything that may have gotten wet under the hatch.

Next season I'll have a truck or bus muffler with a "Y" pipe & 2 lengths of flexable rubber exhaust hose. Should work like a dream. Good thought though.
