[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 3163197, member: 24531"] Well I already used the Camco kit to essentially do what you described. I ran 5 gallons of AFX through it after I had already run it on the trailer to get the t-stat open. What I did not do, is drain the block/exhaust first because I had hoped if I ran it long enough with AFZ that it would replace most of the water without me having to drain it first. I should have drained it first; otherwise I did as you described. I fogged it through the carb and used the fogging oil to stall the engine once most of the AFZ was out of the tank. I do fog with plug holes on my PWC but on the boat I just used the lazy method through the carb. I think I will just drain the block and exhaust and fill it cold (engine off) with 100% AFZ just to be certain...The impeller on this boat is on the front of the motor and I replaced it a couple months ago myself, as well as the circulation pump and t-stat. I had REALLY hoped using the Camco kit when the t-stat was open would get enough AFZ into the system so I didn't have to worry...I bet it did, but not sure if I want to bet a cracked engine...thanks for the reply...as to the other guy's reply, I assume he was just trying to be funny?
