Default Supra (PCM Ford V8) winterize question

...
I winterized my first "True Inboard" today (I've done many I/O's) so I'm
hoping I did things correctly.

I removed 5 drain plugs:
1 from the back of each mainifold
1 from each side the block
1 from a hose connecting elbow below the waterump

I ran a wire up each drain hole to clear out any rust. I disconnect 3
hoses that meet at the thermostat housing area and poured in some
anti-freeze. The boat was out of the water and owner didn't want to start
it so I couldn't fog out the engine.

I did squirt some fogging oil down the carb and in each cylinder and
cranked it over. I also added stabil to the fuel.

Did I miss anything that will bite me in the Spring?

Thanks
Larry


Missed the last couple months boating. Oops, you may be someplace with real
winter.
