Post by dirkpitt1 »

......hooked it all up. But when I went to install the closed system heat exchanger I was preplexed. It is a forward mounted unit and my engine hatch will not sit flush. So here is what I wanna do. Has anyone installed a T-valve in-line of the raw water pipe? Its designed to flush the engine with in the water with the raw water seacock in the closed postion, and a garden hose connected to the threaded valve. Any opinions on this opition?

I have these installed on the saltwater side of my cooling system and have had no issues with them
just remember to open you seacocks back up when completed flushing
