I read on here once that a fella uses vinegar instead of Salt-Away in his flush system to remove salt deposits and flush his motor. I have been having some issues with crud plugging my thermostats and believe the crud is older salt deposits. Can I pull the t-stats and run a solution high in vinegar through the engine to try to remove the deposits? I always use Salt-Away but my boat has sat for about a year while I re-powered my truck. I was going to remove one of the t-stat housings today and put some straight vinegar in it to see how it fairs. If it comes clean after a day in the vinegar I may try this. I have a new impeller waiting so I thought I would try this with no t-stats and the old impeller. Any help or experience with this? Oh yeah-1985 Yamaha 200hp V6
