On my Grady the raw water pump ran the wash down hose and the live well. A valve at helm did the switch over so a single pump did both.
Both lines should have antifreeze run through in the lines. And the switch over valve should have it run through as well as the pump.
TO DO:
Remove hose from seacock. Stuff hose in antifreeze bottle and run pump. Run wash down to shoot through the hose into a 5 gallon catch bucket. And switch valve over to dump into live well. Use catch bucket again for live well drainage.
DONE
That guarantees there is nothing but coolant in there. Then reconnect hose to through hull. Double clamp. Replace hose if getting ragged oR deformed.
Get both lines and hose filled with the pink stuff. Also let it run into drains ( if live well). Want antifreeze in all line, all valves, and all pumps.
