I have a question about bilge bolwers. The manual says to turn it on a few minutes before you start your engine and leave it running a few minutes after you shut it off. I read some where that some blowers are made to run all the time and some are made to only run at idle and when moving very slow. It said they would burn up if left running all the time. I know some boats have vents facing the front of the boat so when your moving forward they pick up air and the other vent faces the rear. Both my vents are on the back cornor and facing the rear. I left my blower on the whole time and let it run a few minutes after I shut it off untill I read this article. What is the correct way. Thanks for any help.
