Post by AKDW »

My 27 AC needs a change of fresh water coolant. I can't find a drain plumb for the Westerbeke 100. Doesn't seem to show on the manuals diagrams.

Who gots the answers?

Dan,

There is a petcock valve on the lower forward starboard side of the engine block. I think we used to open it with pliers.
