Oh my, it got down to 21 dsegrees last night, and thismorning I
thought, OH CRAP. I forgot to winterize the boat! Anyhow I headed
into town to my warehouse and pulled the cover. opened the petcock on
th little 4 cyl GM and the water poured out. I figured it wouldn't
ahve frozen but then again..

I pulled the hoses and slopped the "pink stuff" to it till it was
flushing well out of all open ports including the lower end.

Thats one thing I like about he little GM inline 4, it's so easy to
winterize. 10 to 15 minutes and it's over with. v-8 GM s? Thats a
different story. drain plugs and petcocks in places you wouldn't dream
of.


Anyhow, I lowered the bottom end, pulled the battery and pushed it
back in the corner. Just waiting for Aprl 2010 now......


Just got mine back from the shop today. Stafford Marine...run by a
very nice couple with a couple kids. Cost me $85, which I thought was
pretty reasonable.

Gotta help the economy, doncha know?

It's for damn sure the country's leadership isn't doing it.

Really? Have you paid ANY attention to the stock markets, number of
jobs created, etc., or are you just basing your statement on nothing
but hatred and bias?

What's so funny is that loogy works so hard to suck up to the right-wing
trash here...herring, flajim, justhate, et cetera, and they crap on him
over and over and over, as soon as he posts anything political.

What's so sad about this is that loogy *wants* their approval. As if the
approval of scumbags meant anything.


Loogy is so frippin' stupid, he doesn't realize he's making himself look
just like the idiot he is.
