Re: winterising 496

Probably the same reason they spend big money on a boat and then have a basic membership to OSO.... It does the job, but jesus, let the moths out of the wallet and support the site!! :D :D :D

Re: winterising 496

Not exactly. You use the valve to introduce 100% water to warm the engine. Then you turn the valve and to 100%antifreeze and let it run.... Theoretically.

On my old 496 HO I didn't want any...

Re: winterising 496

No sense in risking it. And when you fire up in the spring something will be in there to held the impeller, etc., as apposed to starting completely dry.

Re: winterising 496
