I have an 06 SeaRay 220 Select that I use year round. I'm in north AL, so the temps drop below freezing a few nights per month this time of year. I can reach the plug to drain the motor easily, but the two plugs on the water pump are nearly impossible to reach. Rather than a plug, I'd like to put an adapter on it so I can attach a short hose and then plug that so it's easier to reach. The problem is, the plug has a coarse thread (13TPI) rather than a more standard 20TPI. I've been to every auto parts and hardware store and nobody has a 1/2-13 threaded adapter - just the finer pitched 20TPI. First, if I can find something that will screw into the pump to attach a hose to, will there be any negative effect? If not, any suggestions on where I can find the right parts to do this, or better suggestions?
Thanks!
Thanks!
