Cat 3126 wintering

[Wistlindixie]

Can someone that knows the answer help me please? Do the cat 3126’s have a thermostat on raw water side?

I used a 14 gallon tub and dumped 7 gallons of antifreeze in it and started the cold engine until it sucked it all in. Will this be sufficient? Or is there a y in the system that doesn’t allow all areas to get the antifreeze in and the water out?

I am not aware of a thermostat on the raw water side. I also have never winterized my engines so I can't help there but here is the link to the 3116 & 3126 CAT operation and maintenance manual...
