- in this video, we are changing the sacrificial zinc anodes inside the block on a Suzuki 250 outboard engine. this is a late model engine, A 2018 to be exact, but these internal engine anodes on outboard engines are very common and they are all very similar. flushing the engine prior to reinstalling these internal block nodes is very important to remove scale and debris so those items won't clog your thermostats and block other areas of the cooling passages throughout the outboard engine. take a look at the video for more info and our thoughts and see us change a few of them etc.
Muchas gracias desde Madrid, por este estupendo video.
Glad to see some new videos being posted! Found your channel last year, and have watched each one several times. I fish up the road outside SAV and even though I’ve fished many years around here, I’ve learned some good tips and techniques from you! Thanks. Looking forward to more.
@Melloreel thank you so much.. I wish we had time to do this a lot more.. I do have a few coming within the month. Thank you again, I really appreciate it!
@@RichieLott I’ll be watching out for them Capt👍 Just got off the water myself 20-30 knot winds, and muddy as heck St Cats sound!
Use a M10 x 1.25 bolt instead of a screwdriver to get the caps out
it's not a bad design at all if you just get used to doing it. looks like you forgot about the one on the port side where you have to take off the Tupperware. it's the one that sits by the oil pan. and don't forget the one that's down in your low water pick up on the front of the gear case. you can reuse the rubber o rings if you don't mess them up. it's a lot easier if you can take the anode housing and put it in a vice. I highly recommend rydlyme. or basically any other descaler. but rydlyme is really a great, and safe product made for this maintenance issue. you're just lucky you don't have to run the St Johns River. it's a total shit hole! with all the particulates, sand, and tannic acid.
I descaled my Suzuki 250 just the other day. I try to do it at least once a year to every 6 months. those things don't grow on trees!
I do not agree that CLR is a good thing to run in your motor, Moat experts agree that it is not recommended to run CLR in a motor it can affect seals and gaskets. Also, it can etch the aluminum. Simple green is also bad for aluminum unless you buy the aluminum safe version. If you need to clean your motor internally, use Simple Green - SMP13406 Extreme Aircraft and Precision Cleaner only.
Good point, thank you. I did not know that Simple Green made a product specifically aluminum safe.
