I recently purchased a new boat. As a novice, I was wondering if anyone could advise me about flushing the engine with an additive. Do you recommend it and if so how often?

if in salt water flush after every use. If you are running T-stats get the engines up to temp and flush for 10 mins. I use a product called salt away or salt terminator.

If salt away, etc. is not available, dish soap works well and is much cheaper. At the end of the season I usually use a cleaner/wax combo too. All I know is when I opened up my Stainless Marine exhaust they looked brand new inside after 350 hrs or so.
