Antifreeze

I have a Volvo MD2b 25hp diesel raw water cooled engine. I was advised by previous owner to put in a gallon of antifreeze (marine) to prevent freezing. Temps are getting down into the low 30's here this week so I did what he said. I disconnected the intake hose and started the engine and sucked in a gallon of antifreeze. My question is...Does this sound right to experienced diesel owners. Is there additional winterizing that would be needed?

Thank you for any assistance.

Rick
