Ensure that all of the connections of the hoses are tight. The connections should not leak.
When possible, utilize the heat of the jacket water system and the heat from the exhaust system.
Keep keel coolers, heat exchangers, and water pumps clean. Keep the components in good repair.
Ensure that all of the accessory pumps are repaired. The pumps should operate efficiently.
Do not exceed the maximum oil level.
Never operate without water temperature regulators.Water temperature regulators regulate heat. Water temperature regulators help to provide efficient operating temperatures. Cold engines consume excessive fuel. Water temperature regulators also help prevent engine overheating.
