Title: winter storage...alky
Post by: Shimy87 on December 18 2013, 04:52:28 PM
Do you guys in cold climates empty your alky systems and replace with anti-freeze windshield wiper fluid? I was told to do this, and did, but I dont understand the benefit??

alky cant freeze

windshield washer fluid is hit or miss on if it will freeze


if you arent going to use for a while , just drain it. either pull the hose off at the pump or  take the hose off nozzle and put in a bucket ,unplug the map sensor and put a wire across the map sensor gray and green wire and turn it on (or hold the test button) ,  the pump will run and empty the system

i personally dont do a thing except make sure there is alky in the tank  and it makes pressure before boosting it
