Start of Season Engine Maintenance
As boating season approaches, I am doing everything I can to help ensure a hassle free season. Last weekend we updated the zincs and cleaned the water inlet on the bottom of the boat.
This weekend is more on engine fluids. I checked the oil levels and they were good then checked the antifreeze/coolant levels, and between the two engines it took about half a gallon of antifreeze to top them off. Not bad for the start of the season.
We have had a tough time finding the Coolant recommended by our mechanic locally, but Walmart.com had it in stock with 3 day delivery, so I ordered more than we needed so that I have a few spares on hand.
