[C320-list] Engine Winterization

[T. Scott Thompson]

1.  Pink stuff is fine for raw water side / winterization.  Not suitable for use as engine coolant or to winterize the block.

2.  Yes, although you can replace it with pink stuff instead.  Stuff the intake hose in a jug or two and run the engine briefly to do this.  Do that anyhow to winterize the heat exchanger.

3.  Will fill itself in the spring!  Provided you open the seacock! Don't forget.

Two Questions:
 
Nigel Calder says to run the same 'pink' stuff thru the engine to winterize  
it that we run thru the water system.  The label on the container says "Not  
for use in engines."  What does everybody else do?
 
Does the water in the aqua muffler need to be drained?  If so, when  starting 
the engine in the spring, will it fill back up by itself or does it  need to 
be refilled?
 
Okay, three questions.
 
Thanks,
Bert
