Default Winterizing myself?

It seems that everyone knows someone who has wrecked an engine by
improper winterizing. I was planning on just following the Mercruiser
engine manual and their recommended procedure. Having mentioned that
to a couple of friends, and their reaction, makes me wonder if there
is something that I should be aware of? Is this all just a mystique
perpetrated to get our money into the pockets of the marinas?
Should I do some additional reading at a URL or should the manual be
enough? For reference, the engine is a Mercruiser 4.3L I/O.
Thanks for any help!


If you are confident in your skills, go ahead, and follow the manual
TO THE LETTER. Keep your eyes open for any possibility of raw water
remaining in the systems.

If you're unsure, hire it done.
Good luck,
