Re: Blowing out the water jacket.
Suggest you dont drop the antifreeze out especially if you have dogs and or cats...its not good for the little ones...
Just start it up, make sure the thermostat opens correctly....and check for leaks...
Dont be surprised if the thermostat sticks...they dont like sitting idle for extended periods of time...
Might be an idea to just replace it first...not hard and in-expensive....there is an old trick that works perfectly...drill a 1/8" hole in the side flange of the thermostat to bleed the air out of the engine...stops an air lock under the thermostat...you drill the thermostat itself, not the housing or manifold....
