Hi All, This is my first year owning/winterizing my 2001 Volvo Penta 4.3/SX. I have a maintenance manual but it seems to have conflicting information. Does anyone know if there is a water intake drain on the outdrive? I can't find it anywhere, it should be fairly obvious. My old MercCrusier Alpha outdrive had no drain; just placing it in the down position did the trick. Also in the manual it mentioned draining the power steering cooler which I could not find. This was also easy to find on the M/C alpha. I've drained everything else I'm just concerned about these two items.
