summerizing Mag 350

[dionmiller]

Hey guys
just imported a tige 2100V limited from the states back to Aussie and just checking summerizing procedures.. As you guys would know we have no need for winterizing so when the question is asked over here eye brows are raised and blank looks appear!! haha!! ok so all the 6 blue plugs were removed when i recieved the boat, i've refitted them, the rear hose to the water pump was removed and the cooling hose to the v-drive from the water pick up was removed.. OK so i don't have a fake lake but i'll find one tomorrow.. buuut does the block need to be flushed, eg. each plug removed to ensure water has gone through the entire block, or if and when i get the fake lake, will the block bleed itself before cranking it over?? Ohh its a MAG 350 by the way.. let me know guys!! keen to get this bad girl out on the water!!

Cheers!!

No, the block does not need to be flushed unless you want to. With all the plugs and hoses in place, the cooling system will pressurize through the raw water pump and purge all the air out of the thermostat and out the exhaust (when you run it on the lake or with a fake-a-lake).
