Re: Barnacle Buster

Just did mine same as "way we go". I pumped it into heat exchange and out before circulation pump. That motor is running 15 degrees cooler. I used this as an interim fix as I plan to change out manifolds and risers next season. Running through the circulation pump is not a good idea as it ...

What would be the correct size bolt and I would imagine it would need to have left hand threads. It is a 78 F-32. ...
