In this video, I go through the steps of winterizing a boat with a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger acts in place of a radiator, intaking cool sea water, and exchanging the heat from the hot engine antifreeze. It must be drained before the freezup otherwise the exchanger can crack.

Out of all the videos I’ve watched I couldnt find this engine being winterized anywhere else. This is a simple and most effective way of doing it.

I appreciate the comment. Glad the video helped out! Thanks for watching!!

Just winterized following these instructions 🤞 Thanks for the video! Hard to find info about these engines. Our "new" boat has been nothing but headaches and moments of terror since getting it a few months ago, but it was nice to notch our first win tonight.

Glad the video helped out. Hopefully next season will be nothing but smooth sailing for you.

I just HAD to smile, at your patience when you dropped the screwdriver. If it was me in that position, there would have been a lot of BLEEPING going on for the video! Take care! Thanks for the video.. GTO Howie

Yeah. The temp was about 29 degrees that day so I was too cold to complain. Haha. Thanks for watching, Howie!

I had 2 Mercruise in/out drives.. 1 was a V8 305 Chevy 305. The other one a 4 cyl 250 Chevy engine. ..........

@delmontindustriesltd7501 6 лет назад

Yeah we have seen both of those engines come through the shop. They are good engines. The one in my boat is actually a Ford internally. But it has some GM Delco parts on it. I guess that it was a special engine made by Ford for Mercruiser at the time. Thanks again for watching!

That’s pretty cool seeing all that boats look like fun to work on

@delmontindustriesltd7501 6 лет назад

Fun to work on? Maybe. As long as you don't drop the screwdriver below the engine. haha!! Thanks for watching, Hank!!!

Where is the fuel filter on this engine? I looked all over last fall while winterizing it and could not locate the fuel filter. I would like to change it this year. Thanks!

Do you have the trailer button on your throttle?

@Budro4764 6 лет назад

Break out the tele magnet LOL....... Did you use that boat this summer ?? Did you do a inventory yet at your old shop ?? I was waiting on an update so I could see for some good deals . Great vid Mon Ami .......

@delmontindustriesltd7501 6 лет назад

Haha. Yeah, I was not happy when I dropped that screwdriver. Luckily I had the magnet with me there just in case. Unfortunately I did not use the boat at all this summer. I was so busy working. I had gotten it ready in the spring but never had the chance to go out. So I winterized it again. We are still setting up at the new place. I am kinda part time now so I have been doing alot of stuff here around the house rather than working as many hours. Thanks for watching!

I just bought this motor and noticed the reservoir looked like it had just water in it. Im assuming there should be coolant in there and i should not let it freeze.

@delmontindustriesltd7501 3 года назад

There should be coolant in part of it. The heat exchanger (long tube I was working on) is basically the radiator. Using cool lake water to exchange the heat with the antifreeze circulating around the block. The front half of the heat exchange should have antifreeze.

@DJMARKGHOODFELLA 8 месяцев назад

Question. Do the cap go back in the reservoir before putting the antifreeze in? Or do it stay out?

@delmontindustriesltd7501 8 месяцев назад

Cap goes back in. It's just to drain any water out of the system that's in there.

@davewilley7483 3 года назад

I sprayed a full can of fogger in my carb and it wouldnt die.

@delmontindustriesltd7501 3 года назад

That happens. You have to basically kill it with the key when it starts to sputter.

@imtheonevanhalen1557 3 года назад

Oil fogging the engine for storage is for 2 stroke outboards.....it's for the lower crankshaft bearing.....you're only coating the spark plugs with that crap. Those water muffs can blow the seals in the out-drive if the engine isn't running....use low pressure until the engine starts......the seals are designed to seal under suction.....which brings us to...DRAIN the oil out of the out-drive before freezing temps.....if the seals have been damaged, and there is water in the drive gear oil, it will split it like a bomb exploded inside. Not necessary for I/O 4 strokes. The way it smoked when it fired, I'm pretty sure there was plenty of residual oil for the cylinders. DO NOT trim the drive up during storage.....guaranteed splits in the rubber boots.......trim the drive DOWN ALWAYS when not in use....replacing the boots is a royal pain in the you know where.........
