I was winterizing my Mercruiser 5.7L model 260 a little late. One thing I do is to pull the intake hose (at the engine) that runs from the outdrive to the front of the engine to the thermostat/waterpump area. I then pour antifreeze down that hose until it comes out the intake slots in the outdrive.
Today when I poured antifreeze it ran right into the bilge. Best case would be the hose popped off a fitting.
