I know this might sound crazy but has anyone ever flushed out their outboard with either dove or dawn soap?My buddy about 12yrs ago showed me a trick on how he never gets any salt build up in his engine.
He usto take 3to 5drops of soap and put it in the water hose and then run it through the engine,he told me it sanitizes close to 99% of the salt[can't ever get 100% of it out no matter what] and is way cheaper then salt-away $1.29 compared to $30 to $40.I have done this to all my outboards for 12 yrs and have never had a problem at all my question is has anyone ever heard of this or does this themselves?If yes have u had any problems at all just wondering?
My buddy who showed me this is also a guide who learned it off another guide so i was wondering how many people have heard of this.I have small outboards so i just use a plastic garbage pal and fill it up with water and 2drops of dove or dawn i guess it seems to work good as no problems yet.
Ok curious to hear some feedback on this one thanks for any responses.
