Should have used a clean 5 gallon bucket instead of a dirty bucket. Not sure if the hose connected to the heat exchanger is connected to the input side or the out put side
@@JamesHerrington-y9d The input goes in to the gear box oil cooler and the out side comes from the heat exchanger that would normally go to the exhaust elbow.
Questions : 1: Is the only reason to remove the coolant reservoir to get access to the heat Exchanger hose? 2: What size hoses do you use for the TAMD41P-A? 3: After the flush, is there still enough juice left in the product to use it to flush the AC system?
I removed the coolant reservoir to mainly clean it (see part 4 video) but also it does help get access to the end cap of the heat exchanger. Hose diameter is 25mm ID on the heat exchanger and 50mm ID on my gear box cooler. I would say there would be enough Cleaner left to do your AC . I used all of the cleaner when I did mine but you don’t have to in one go. Jamie
There are 2 ways to clean the seawater side of the system. The one in the video or pour in the chemical cleaner in the seawater filter start the engine and wait to you see the chemical come out the exhaust then stop the engine . That way the chemical stays in the system for 24hours to dissolve the lime scale buildup. I think the way I do it is better though .
Great video, I have an Antares 760 with the same engine and setup and need to flush it. Have you got Part 3 to post with footage of replacing the heat exchanger seals? Many thanks
Glad you like the video. I don’t have a video with the heat exchanger seals being changed. But there are other video’s of engines maintenance that may interest you on my channel .
Great vid. So just to clarify - the bilge pump is pushing the cleaning solution into the gear box cooler then the cleaning solution travels through the heat exchanger and exits via the pipe you've attached to the heat exchanger. Is that right? Just want to make sure I pump the cleaning solution around the right direction through the engine!!
Hi there. A very nice video. I now want it to do it your way on my Peugeot Indenor. A question. You said for several hours. Do you mean that the pump is circulate the fluid for several hours through the system or do you mean, turn off the pump and let it stay that way before you use the clean water to flush? Thanks and regards, Ed
Hey mate I’ve just tried this chemical clean I can’t get water to flow tidy it just trickles out ? I took impeller out, I connected to oil cooler then took pipe off that goes from heat exchanger to exhaust elbow , any tips ? Thanks
Why didnt you just take the hose off the outlet side of the water pump and the hose off the exhaust elbow and run the chemicals through that way. A lot easier and nothing needs to be removed.
thats the complete raw water cooling system. comes from outdrive to your water pump impeller, up through your sea strainer, then down through heat exchanger and all your other components and then goes out the exhaust elbow. Heres a link that shows it. ua-cam.com/video/kiIzmcPKHy8/v-deo.htmlsi=EE9oq5KHhsTPQHI8
The link is very useful but that engine is a different set up . My water in let goes straight to my filter then in to the gearbox oil cooler then follows on to the seawater pump then after that goes around the other engine components before going out the exhaust elbow.
Really helpful video, thanks for that. Do you run the engine to get up to running temperature to get the thermostats to open before starting the flush ?
you can leave the impeller in, still have the closed loop with the hoses and run the engine, not needing the bilge pump.

Why not run the boat for this process? Great stuff btw you are The man for doing this

Yes that’s correct. You can reverse the flow it doesn’t make a difference.

Hi great video, does the engine run cooler now ?
@@JamesDavey-k4n The engine runs cooler and specially at WOT
Hi, does the impeller need to be removed?
Can the product damage it?
Thank you very much and greetings from Spain.
The impeller has to be removed otherwise the fluid won’t pump around .
It won’t damage your engine the chemical treatment.

It should flow fine unless you have a blockage. Contact me on my facebook
Message and I will give you my number and walk you through it 👍

If I am reading it correctly that way wouldn’t clean my gearbox oil cooler.

No. just flush from cold as it’s the seawater side that’s getting cleaned . 👍
@@shakyangler Oh yea, of course, got that. I'm going to flush mine in the next few weeks, I'll do it just the same as you show, thanks very much.
Any problems give me a shout . Also there are other videos on my channel .
@@shakyangler Did you drain the seawater out before you flushed the system ?
Yes. drain the sea water out first .
tut tut, no maintenance in 2 years 😞
