Re: winterization 1994 390 CPMY/LENGHTY!
Now to the A/C units. opened the strainer and flushed with freshwater for 10 minutes. Then added 5 gallons of pink stuff until it came out the thru hulls. The starboard (rear) A/C needed some "help" Used some air (and it was regulated down to approx. 20 PSI) and had to blow line out and a BIG glob of crap came out. Now pink came out easily there. Took air to the fittings at the ice maker and got air out, then used the pump and charged It with pink.
Tried to add a winterizing valve to the domestic water pump but didn't have the proper fittings. So I added 6 gallons of pink stuff to the domestic storage tank and turned on the water pump. Ran each faucet AGAIN and pink continued to come out as it did the first time via the city pressure fitting.
Lastly, added a couple of gallons of pink to each toilet, Then flushed a few times to see the pink coming from the water lines. Hit the macerator button for approx. 5 seconds and saw a trace of pink come out, so it appears to be charged.
I am leaving the generator and the engines to someone else, someone who is a lot slimmer than I who can get to the engine room strainers. Sound like I got it all?
