No, it is a “fresh water cooled” one. But the cooling water mixes up with exhaust gases in the mixing elbow. If the engine is not running, the water can (trust me on that (😊)) enter the cylinder(s).

I also use a bucket (from Home Depot) and run a garden hose to it and a length of hose from it to the water intake to run the engine on the hard. This way, there is no pressure at the water pump (experience tells me that it is a good thing; a long story). When it warms up, I stop the water flow and pour AF (I use about 3 gal, but our winter can get quite cold). Pretty simple.

I prefer to let the engine pump the pink stuff through the strainer, the hoses, the impellor, the heat exchanger, and the lift muffler, and the exhaust hose. I hang a bucket under the exhaust hose to catch the first pink stuff, and run till the stream is solid pink. I pour the stuff from the bucket into sink drains to winterize the trap, the hose and the seacock too. Chuck Your contributions help pay the fees associated with this list and help to keep it active.
