Hey Jawz this maybe a stupid question, but none of the boats Ive owned have had a closed cooling system. Is that what the air pump is for?

air pump,it works like this,atatch it to the schrader vavle and pump away-there's an accumulator at the bottom of the engine,it has a vavle that releases,dumping the entire raw water side of the cooling system...

this is a really old thread...

a clsoed cooling system is nice,allows the engine to run at a slightly higher temp-allowing the engine to operate more efficiently.as far as corrosion is concerned,i've never seen an engine with a problem due to being raw water cooled-read that as rusted through,if the engine has water,be it fresh or salt in it's cooling jackets,there's an absence of air,therefore,no oxidation...manifolds and risers still need to be replaced every 4-5 seasons-cooling water exits...


wiring:

sure looks nice when it's done correctly huh dave ??
