How good is Volvo's Neutra Salt flushing system?

Question

Hi good people,

I'm contemplating purchasing Volvo's Neutra Salt flushing system for my twin engines boat. The engines use raw water for cooling and are 4 years old with 140hrs on each engine. Question is - is Neutra Salt any good and will my engines benefit from being hooked up at this stage of their life. I purchased the boat second hand.

Any info welcome.

Answer 1

I recommend this system for brackish or salt water use.  No question it works and that 4 year old engines will benefit from regular flushing.  It's even a good time of year to install it.  Winterization is just a couple months away. Good luck!!!!

Answer 2

I agree with Richard C. However, this will not undo the damage (rust) that has already gotten hold of your raw water cooling. Exhaust risers, because of high heat,  are most likely to continue to swell with rust internally, the rest of the engines should be OK
