1979 Albin 33. First winter in below freezing winter.
Upgraded Prestone in engine to -34C. and drained all fresh water.
Pumped out holding tank and added some RV antifreeze to both water tanks and holding tanks as well as heads.
Took off the water intake hose after raw water filter to put intake hose in a bucket of Prestone to flush out the impeller and exhaust manifold.
My problem is that I took off the hose after the filter (easier to get at) and now that leaves the glass globe filled with fresh water.
Have tried all possible to unscrew the globe or find a pee cock to drain it.
Does anyone have experience draining this filter without removing it or the hose on the intake side?
Sure will appreciate advice.
