Re: Drain plugs for winterize
 
Boat owners manuals are a waste of paper. You can read this STICKY for information on manuals.
As for the drain plugs on a 4.3 there are 5.
Looking at the engine in from inside the boat, there are two on each side under the block and one in the front close to you halfway down to your left by the thermostat housing. The thermostat housing on the front of the engine has a c-shaped hose on the left (side with the fuel filter). At the base, there should be another blue plug. You have to squeeze your hand alongside the serpentine belts to get to it. If you happen to not have one, unclamp the hose to get the water out.
