Spent a couple of hours at the boat today. I got the fresh water pump back together (with properly positioned water heater barbs and a new temp sender for an analog gauge) and reinstalled with new gaskets and true Yanmar hoses, using decent AWAB clamps. I didn't have time to work on the heat exchanger, or the exhaust. The new exhaust elbow looks almost as pretty as the new mixer elbow. The small elbows that connect the back of the heat exchanger to the mixing elbow definitely need some serious cleaning before they go back in. They look like they need to borrow some of my Simvastatin. Again, it's a good thing I decided to tackle this.
I ran a bunch more fresh water through the block to thoroughly flush it before putting in the new Havoline ELC. I do need to turn the thermostat on that new water heater down. I nearly scalded myself!
Have dug up a load of fittings I'd assembled some time ago with the hope of installing an analog oil pressure gauge without disabling the alarm.
