Engine wash out

[danielcasey01]

Hi Everyone--
I have a 2008 SX 230 and I blow out the engines after each you. For a variety of reasons, I am selling the boat and was wondering I can blow the engines while the boat is on the trailer so the buyer can hear the engines run.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Why don’t you just run the engines on the hose?

Are there hose hookups on the engines I am unaware of? The only fresh water i know are inside boat near the rear cushions.

Right, that's the hose connection to allow you to run the engine for more than a few seconds without overheating it, while the boat is out of the water.

In my opinion you can run 15 seconds max without cooling water.
