****. That would be a huge project at this point. Getting a diesel
going in the temperatures we'll have by the day after tomorrow is no
joke. The batteries are in the shop, there is ice all around the
boat. Uhg.

This is a two cylinder raw water cooled diesel BTW. I knew you had to
mix antifreeze for cooling systems but I thought that was for proper
heat transfer. The idea that it freeze never occurred to me. This
stuff (non-tox with corrosion inhibitors; not RV anti-freeze) is just
in there to winterize the engine. Freezing solid won't hurt anything
unless it expands.
