end cap of the heat exchanger. It is not necessary to remove

plugs in a plastic bag and attach to the engines.
5. Note the hose orientation of the raw water pump.
Loosen the hose clamps and remove the hoses from
the raw water pump.
6. Crank the engine briefly, one or two crankshaft
revolutions but do not start the engine to clear water
from the pump.
7. Reinstall the hoses and secure the clamps in the same
orientation as they were when removed.
8. Failure to connect the raw water pump hoses in the correct
orientation will damage the water pump impeller.
9. Be sure that all water is drained from the engine.
