    2004 BF 225 Check engine light on but no alarm

    First time poster, but I’ve been reading tons of posts going back years primarily covering thermostat issues and related cooling questions such as what’s the best product to use when flushing these engines - vinegar, salt away, salt off, salt terminator (Honda recommended) or others. Today’s...
