Seasonal Storage Instructions
1. Read all precautions and perform all procedures found in Preparing Your Power
Package For Seasonal or Extended Storage.
2. Read all precautions and perform all procedures found in Section 5 - Draining The
Seawater System and drain the seawater section of the cooling system.
IMPORTANT: Cummins MerCruiser Diesel recommends that propylene glycol
antifreeze be used in seawater section of the cooling system for cold weather
(freezing temperature), seasonal storage, or extended storage. Make sure that the
propylene glycol antifreeze contains a rust inhibitor and is recommended for use in
marine engines. Be certain to follow the propylene glycol manufacturer’s
recommendations.
3. Fill a container with approximately 5.6 liter (6 U.S. quarts) of propylene glycol antifreeze
and tap water mixed to manufacturer’s recommendation to protect engine to the lowest
temperature to which it will be exposed during cold weather or extended storage.
4. Disconnect the seawater inlet hose from the seawater pump. Using an adapter, if
required, temporarily connect an appropriate length piece of hose to seawater pump
and place the other end of the hose into the container of propylene glycol antifreeze and
tap water.
