Kamd44 heating

[derekh]

Hi, I hope i can be steered here to do the right thing. I believe reading forums that my heating problem on my kamd44’s is a partially blocked heat exchanger (both engines run too warm over 3000 rpm) can these be cleaned without removal as in my boat access to one of them is a massive job. (Galley removal) can someone who has done the job share method which works.
Very many thanks.

I would suggest posting your question on the YBW Motorboat forum, as I expect you'd get more replies on there:-

No need to ask the mobo boys, we knows how to do this here

Rydlyme is what you need.

A bucket of Rydlyme with a little pond pump in it, pump it into "start" the cooling circuit with the pump and from the last connection possible back to the bucket. Round and round it goes, for 2 or 3 hours and your heat exchangers should look like new inside.

Geez, but this guy is good!

What we need now is a portable/deflatable vinyl/Hypalon bathtub in which I could immerse my whole boat.....

Maybe they do something similar for oil containment? Howzabout it, Paul?
