That is all I have seen used around the shop and I have used them in the past. Has a telescoping pole so it will stay in the right place under the boat. They do not recommend more than a few thousand RPMs when running under the fake a lake so do not run your engine at high RPMs. I think they run in the 40-60 price range depending on where you find them. |

Flush Pros work great. I have one on my boat with a remote hose running to the transome so hooking up the hose is easy. Here is a link to one http://www.westmarine.com/1/1/1826-flus ... -hose.html |

I reccommend a transom flush kit too. My marina installed the one from malibu/axis, works like a charm. hook up a water hose to it, turn it on. keeping engine at idle for 5-10 mins. |

I use the Fake a Lake and have also seen most shops use them for servicing...its easy, quick and an inexpensive way to go! |

Is the factory installed flush kit installed between the transmission cooler and the impeller? I was thinking of adding a Perko kit, but a few other threads on other boards suggested that the unit should be installed between the intake and v-drive. |
