"I boat in a shallow lake with lots of silt and sand. I am winterizing my 1990 5.0 LX...when I opened the petcocks to drain the water, they were plugged - had to dig around with a nail quite a bit to get a flow. I did get it to flow out fast and alot of crud came with. IF I saw a good flow out of all petcocks, am I safe or is there something I should do to flush it out. HELP"
