It is a gravity-fed flush system: fill the included tank with five gallons of antifreeze, connect your own flusher, and the engine's water pump draws the antifreeze through the system to protect internal components from freeze damage and corrosion during off-season storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit uses a high-flow 5\/8 inch hose fitted with brass connections to improve antifreeze flow into the engine, and the hose is reinforced and clear so you can monitor flow and resist kinking during setup. No tools or extra equipment are required beyond antifreeze and a flusher. The tank, winterizing tee, and hose assembly are reusable season after season, making this a budget-friendly, one-person alternative to a professional winterizing service call.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is designed for inboard and outboard engines. For engines with a front mounted raw water pump system, such as Volvo and others, Camco's Flush Adapter is required and sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e
