    Any reason why I couldn’t install a fresh water flush input at the bung on the SMX water pump. I seems to me that this would allow the fresh water (engine is off) to circulate past the impeller, through the entire system, and then down the exhaust. I do have the right elevations so that the exit water wouldn’t back up the wrong direction…

    Not all that steep of a downward pitch running aft there, don’t park her downhill before you flush!

    There is a slight decline where the raw water dumps into the exhaust, so it seems to me that there would be no risk of water intrusion in the wrong direction…
