FRESH WATER COOLING ENGINES ONLY
On fresh water cooled engines with antifreeze in the cooling system, remove
hoses from the rear of the manifolds for draining. Drain raw water from the
heat exchanger and oil coolers by removing drain plugs and all raw water
hoses (1" or 1 1/4" ID hoses only) by removing them from their fitting.
Test the antifreeze solution to be sure it is strong enough to offer full
protection against freezing. Antifreeze should be changed after winterization
each year.
RAW WATER COOLED ENGINES ONLY
Remove drain plugs on both sides of the engine block and engine oil cooler.
Probe holes with a short piece of wire to make certain all the water has
drained from the engine.
CAUTION! THE GM 5.7 KNOCK SENSOR IS LOCATED IN THE
DRAIN HOLE FOR THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE BLOCK. DO
NOT DROP THE SENSOR OR IT MAY BE DAMAGED. WHEN
REINSTALLING THE SENSOR, MAKE SURE THE THREADS ARE
CLEAN AND TORQUE THE SENSOR 11 - 16 LB. FT.
When draining is completed, flush the block using a garden hose to flush salt
water or water with high silt content from the engine.
Allow to drain completely.
Install the block drain plugs and securely install the plug in the water pump
elbow, if equipped, reinstall any hoses removed and reinstall manifold plugs.
Remove the block feed hose from the connection on the raw water supply
pump. Elevate the end of the hose to a level higher than the top of the
thermostat housing. Through the hose, fill the engine with a solution of 50%
clean water and 50% permanent antifreeze such as Zerex or Prestone.
This helps prevent drying out the seals and gaskets, preventing the formation
of hard dry scale in the water jackets and prevents freezing damage due to
isolated pockets of trapped water that remains in the block.
When the system has been filled with the antifreeze mixture, reconnect and
tighten the water hose to the water pump.
Exhaust pipes and engine air intakes should be closed off during prolonged
storage periods to minimize condensation inside the engine.
Remove the battery and store in an area where above-freezing temperatures
are maintained.
