I was trying to avoid having to run the engines. With the closed cooling system, I am only concerned about flushing the heat exchanger and exhaust. Superflush makes a system that does this for about 3-4 grand for twins. I was looking at plumbing a quick connect fitting between the seawater pump and heat exchanger. My concern is fresh water reverting through the heads if the motor is off.
