Engine Corrosion Protection Components
The engine is equipped with a sacrificial anode located on the intercooler end cover to assist in protecting the engine and the
seawater cooling system from corrosion.
Removal
1. Allow the engine to cool.
NOTICE
Failure to close the seawater inlet or seacock when removing or replacing the anode plugs can lead to water damage. Close
the seacock or remove and plug the seawater inlet hose to prevent water from entering the anode plug holes.
2. With the engine off, close the seacock, if equipped, or remove and plug the seawater inlet hose.
3.
Drain the seawater system. Refer to Flushing and Draining the Seawater System.
