I need some help with Winterizing my 1979 Jetboat equipped with a 454 BB. I have winterized our I/O many of times, but I am not sure of what I need to do with my Jetboat. It has a Berkeley jet. A few questions I have: <br />1. Does the actual jet need to be drained in any way? Could there be water in the Jet that could freeze and harm the Jet? <br />2. Engine Block. I pulled the thermostat cover off which the two disharge lines are connected to and that caused a pressure release and water from the engine came out of the jet intake. I opened the valves on the block. Just a few drips of water came out. How do I winterize the block? If I put antifreeze in where the thermostat sits, the antifreeze will just come out through the jet intake.<br />3. Do I need to winterize my wet headers? I am sure there is water in the headers or lines leading to them. Could that water cause problems? <br /><br />Please Help!
