Comments about Camco Camco Anti-Freeze Winterizing Kit:

This was a very easy to use product. I warmed the boat up with the muffs on to make sure the thermostat was open then I just opened the valve and shut off the water it sucked the anti-freeze right in.

Comments about Camco Camco Anti-Freeze Winterizing Kit:

The Camco winterizing kit truely simplifies the winterizing process. Simply to connnect, warm up the engine and then turn the valve to add the antifreeze all in one continuous process. The container vent wasn't pre cut so don't forget to make the vent hole. I would also recommned Camco increases the diameter of the hose as it restricted the flow of antifreeze into my engine, where as in previous years using a home made contraption, my engine enhaled the antifreeze much quicker.
