last part to winterize??

[7-c's]

well, i've changed the oil,fogged the engine,and pulled most of the cooling hoses off and drained them-then refilled all locations until i saw antifreeze coming out of the block, pump(s)-even pulled the thermostat and backfilled thru there. now, my big concern is how do i make sure i can get antifreeze into the outdrive exhaust? i can't seem to see how to get it from the high exhaust riser at the engine and out the drive. when i lowered the drive i still had some fresh water draining out of the prop. the manual mentioned a port side water drain plug on the drive, but to me, it looked like an oil fill/vent of some kind- it had an o-ring on it and no water came out.? now what?

Disconnect a a plug wire or two or hand crank it and turn it over to circulate it through the system but don't start it. Then top it off. I always get a dribble out the outdive after letting gravity do it's job maybe you have a air bubble or something ? Good luck!
