I'll add my 2 cents. I always run the carburetors dry after I flush the engine simply by disconnecting the fuel line ( providing you have the quick disconnect type) from the engine and letting the motor run itself till it quits. This gets enough fue…
Thanks for the info :)
No, you should hook up the ears and turn on the water. Then start the engine. The only way water will come out of the pee tube without the engine running is on the models with the flush kit that flushes behind the thermostate but does not circulate…
