Post by 8BALL » Sun Feb 17, 2013 10:48 pm

Without recommending BCF, what would the best place to buy a collapsible bag to flush my boat engine?

I checked on ebay and to my surprise not one to be found under collapsible bag over 20L.

Suggestion was running a bucket is quieter then a set of plugs. And also less wasteful with the water

Say you use a 200ltr bucket. How long before the water is fouled anyway..? Your gonna increase the salt content, (what your essentially trying to get rid of), every time you re-use the bucket. Unless your intention is to refill the bucket every time...either way, I think flush mufflers are your better option mate.

It's very marginal being quieter in a bucket and if your looking for a 200ltr bag then I'd say you would use more water that way anywayas if your only flushing the motor it only takes a few minutes.

Spot on , bugs ears are the go.
And as mentioned above , you'll foul the water with the impurites you are trying to flush out , a bucket just recycles crap back into the motor !.
Most people have been using bugs ears for the last 20+ years roughly , still the easiest and quickest way to flush the motor at home.
