Ive searched thru the forum and havent found really any definitive answers about winterizing the ballast. which I need to do.
Its easy enough to poor antifreeze down the drain lines to circulate it thru those pumps...but the intake pumps..not so easy. I couldnt get enough suction (cause I didnt have a perfect seal) to get anything being sucked out of a bucket...but question if its necessary.
Ideas?
Someone posted his manifold holding the intake pumps cracked and to remove a pump and add RV there...but that manifold is in direct line to the intake hole...as long as the boats on a incline...everything should drain right out of there.
