I recently sold my single D6 powered boat & will shortly be getting another powered by twin D4's.
The main weakness of these engines (in my opinion) is the tendancy of the salt water cooling circuit to
build up internal salt deposits over time. Eventually these work their way out through the O rings & can lead to salt water dripping on the starter motor etc.
Has anyone fitted a system that would allow a fresh water flush just before shutdown (or an injection of 'Salt Away' etc) - that could prevent the problem occurring?
