I just purchased (2) complete SE106 for my 1988 Sea Ray 270 Amberjack
4.3L. There are some prevenitive maintenance items that I want to get done before I reinstall the new outdrives & I will not be able to get all comleted before winter sets in. My delima is that with the drives off I obviously can't use muffs to provide water for cooling, that's one problem. the other thing is when I removed the old outdrives I moved shifter in full forward position & I'm not sure what happens if I move them back so I can get in neutral for starting engines. I want to run the engines so I can change my oil, run antifreeze thru block & fog out. Does anyone have a process that I could follow? I just don't know if I can hook a hose from a container full water & then switch it to antifreeze. Will the engine block water pump pull in the fluids & circulate thru the block & out the stern?
Any help would be more appriciated than I can say in words at this point. I just bought the boat last year, it was a dream fullfilled & want to do everything thats best.
Sincerely,
Curt
