    A sincere thank you to the author. I run a small yamaha 4hp four. Stopped pissing water. I installed 8 pieces of lower end rubber i

      Parts all oem. New impeller and housing. Fired it up no pissing.
      I performed your procedure 1st pass nothing. Walked back home for a pair of pliers. It soaked, engine off for 1/2 hour. Fired it back up. Pissing like a race horse! Flushed with clean water for 25 minutes. I'm now off to Strom Thurmond lake happy and full of confidence in the motor. Oh, found a small blob of brown crap in the bottom of the turkey pot. That was the blockage. New thermostat. The piss water is not even warm either. You're the man! End-of-happy-rant.
      Thanks man.

    When did Dawn dish soap leave any type of residue? Waxie or otherwise? ...

    Nice video showing the flush setup.
    Thanks.
    I take my thermostats out and do a barnicle buster flush with a fountain water pump every time I drop the lower unit to replace the impeller.
    Let that barnicle buster cycle for about an hour while I replace the impeller in the lower.
    A lot of scale at the bottom of the barrel every time. Good stuff.

    What proof do you have that this flush does any different than plain water?

    Damn! 3,000 hrs? You take good care of thoae motors. And they look brand new.

    Probably a good idea on boats that don’t get used much. My guides in the bahamas run the engines 3000 hours and they NEVER get flushed. They key is running them everyday, which most people can’t

    How about smaller outboard / bucket ratios . I have a 35hp evinrude 1978. Using a 32gal trash can . How.much vinegar/ soap

      Tractor Supply... I may not have said it on camera, but it's a 100 gallon water trough, around 100 dollars.

    I use vinegar and baking soda. When the water in the water outlet is low, I pump the mixture of vinegar and baking soda up through the outlet hole with a syringe.

    Yep thanks for this, I tried what I read the other day and it was mind blowing to see her writhing with pleasure and ready for anything. It started when I learned to last at least 30 minutes go’ogling the latest by Greyzar Drinbo and now she just can't have enough

      Doesn’t the baking soda neutralize the vinegar?

    You may want to do this to your engine but don't recommend this to others

  • @darrengillesdarrengilles8336

    There can be no proof this restores or maintains coolant flow rate without measuring the amount of water entering the cooling system and measuring what comes out the other end over a given amount of time compared to what the flow rate was when the motor was new. Also there is no visual benefit that can be taken from this video as nothing was disassembled to show the inside of the cooling system before or after the flush proving corrosion buildup removal. The outside of the engines look new? OK.

      The guy didn’t have to prove you or anybody else about what he does with his motors, didn’t have to take anything apart to show you the results of his method, one thing is for sure, the shit works, I tried it, I did take pictures before and after and to my surprise it did clean, so, if you don’t believe the guy or not is your problem.

      Ouch, lighten up.
      Look, why do people make these kinds of videos…mostly to help others I’m guessing. I think the guy you jumped all over is just pointing out, if you’re trying to help others, how about some proof as to what it’s actually doing. No, the guy that made the video doesn’t HAVE to prove to this guy or anyone for that matter but you gotta know there would and will be skeptics and rightfully so, this isn’t some cheap toy to be doing just anything to. BTW, I work in a marine service center.
      But certainly some type of proof would add another level of legitimacy to this video, maybe even earning the poster a few more 'Likes'. Something even as simple as starting with a clean tank, draining the tank after the treatment through a mesh strainer and showing scale or whatever, anything supporting the treatment would be something, better than nothing.
      Ya know, too many people today just gobble up what anybody posts on the Internet WITHOUT question and there are a lot of dumb*ss people posting videos on subjects they aren’t experts in or even exceptionally knowledgeable in. There is absolutely no reason that the OP shouldn’t question this treatment.
      Not sure why you felt the need to jump this guy’s ass…the guy that made the video (Bottom Fishing 24-7) didn’t see a need to do it either. Ever heard of constructive criticism…just say’in.
      How ‘bout you Bottom Fishing 24-7…your thoughts?

      Am quite sure he knows what he’s doing. No one is gonna try smthg on an expensive outboard just to post a video. For each is own technic man. Do you have one doctor for all your needs. Dnt think So. Rest my case, thie shit wrks say Thankyou amd maybe you can try it in your marina shop. 👏👏👏
