Importance of Engine Flushing
We understand your passion for watercraft. We also want to help you maintain your watercraft so it can be reliable and fun. Engine flushing is one of the most crucial steps after a saltwater run. Most manufacturers will recommend a freshwater flush so that it can clean out the salt build-up that could cause flow problems through the passageways. Restricted flow can have its own complications like engine overheating which could leave you stranded wherever you may be.
Always remember these key tips when flushing out your engine.
1.) NEVER start an engine without a water source first connected. (flush connection or “ear muffs” will work)
2.) Always consult your owners manual for specific instruction on the flush procedure.
3.) Make sure all water is drained from the engine when finished.
Proper care for your engine will ensure that you only spend a nickel on maintenance instead of a dollar on repair.
