I’d like to flush my QSM11 raw water cooling system with RydLyme once I put the boat back in the water. Is the procedure as simple as:
Remove zincs.
Reinstall zinc holder bolts without zinc.
Close raw water intake seacock.
Detach point where cooling raw water would be discharged through exhaust.
Use bilge pump or livewell pump to push RydLyme through cooling system in opposite direction of normal flow. Exhaust outflow toward the raw water pump.
Collect RydLyme in bucket at the hose that had connected to raw water pump outflow side.
Continuously Re-circulate RydLyme for 4 hours.
Flush system with Fresh water.
Install new zincs.
Reconnect hose to raw water pump, reconnect hose to discharge into exhaust.
Open raw water seacock.
Run the boat.I have read that I need to plug the outlet going to the prop shaft seal.
Thanks for any tips.
