dougstankavich Posted October 9, 2024 Report Share Posted October 9, 2024 I know there’s a handful of discussions already on the boards about this. But I didn’t find any specific to 2016 Raptor 400’s. A few questions. I plan to run the fuel treatment as the Indmar book describes, obviously pretty standard, then fog the cylinders. Plan on doing the oil/filter/impeller in the spring and replacing the plugs then too. The “general prep” section talk about antifreeze for fresh water cooled engines only. I know there’s an internal cooling system and I believe a fresh water system, right? Previous owner had it in a heated shop and had more money than DIY ability. Doesn’t seem to know the answers to most questions. But he didn’t think I needed to run marine antifreeze into the fresh water intake? Just check the internal coolant and drain the plugs described in 8-4 of the Indmar manual? Part two of the same project, there’s some type of connection/vent on the upper starboard side of the transom just above the inlaid step next to the Switch Horn. I tried to trace out the hose that extends internally from it. I was hoping it’s a fresh water intake but the opening and threads are too small. Does everyone just use a fake a lake to winterize/recomission? (Photos of the vent/connection I have in case it’s aftermarket or no one knows what I’m talking about) Part three, I’m sure I could look and figure it out, but does anyone know off hand what VDrive the 2016 F22 has? Indmar manual lists 5 options, all of which have a water drain for winterization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordonjt1979 Posted December 11, 2025 Report Share Posted December 11, 2025 Did you ever figure out what that connection/vent on the upper starboard side of the transom is? Update: You probably know this, but it's a fuel vent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
