I flush as soon as the engine is turned off, so the thermostat is still open. It takes at least fifteen minutes for the tell tail to produce cool water. As the boat is always on the water, I can't flush any other way.

[/ QUOTE ] Glad to be of service, but have you bought the £1.50 Suzuki screw-in fitting to attach the hose to? When you undo the actual plug, don't drop it in the water. Actually I must see if it floats.
