The seacock should always be open when the engine is run, regardless if it is cold. It can be a good idea to close the seacock, when the boat will be left unattended. This is insurance against hose or clamp failure...
no you shouldn't because the cold air that your engine sucks up can quit your engine and stop running
yes, should never add coolant to cold engine
Your engine should be cold ( to be on the safe side) when adding antifreeze/coolant. i let the car sit overnight and then add it.
Means to start the engine while it is cold (And has not been running for a few hours so the engine has gone cold)
Probably your engine thermostat is sticking open
No.
Check your temperature gauge. If it shows the engine is running in the normal range then there could be a problem with the "air door" that controls how much air is brought in through the heater core. Or the core itself is plugged and needs to be flushed out. If the guage shows the engine is running cold , then you should have the thermostat replaced.
All burns should be treated with either cold running water or an ice pack. Water is preferable.
Moisture in the exhaust, or a cold running engine.
Normally your dipstick has a hot and cold mark on it. If not check it hot, always check it with the engine running on an even surface.
When cold, the unit should heat with 3-4 minutes of the engine running.
No , on my vehicle there is a cold fill mark . When the engine is cold the engine coolant should be up to the cold fill mark
