Hello, After my previous thread regarding the coil not heating up in my calorifier, it seems that my heat exchanger doesnt seem to be pumping water round and may need a new impeller in the water pump. Does anybody have the workshop & or service manual for this engine as isuzu didnt seem to want to help and engines plus wanted £60 for a manual! Any help would be appreciated. Regards

It's a vertical cylinder. I will try get the air lock out while engine is running thanks. I may add a bleed valve in if it's the problem as the header tank is mounted on the engine and is lower than the cylinder coil

Hello, I have just purchased a liverpool boats 55x10 with a isuzu 55 engine, the flow & return pipes that come from the engine to the secondary coil in the calorifer are not heating up, the water in the engine is obviously hot but its not getting pumped around the coil for some reason? Any suggestions? Regards Mitch

Brilliant.

So did we decide if "medium density polyethylene" was a good enough material or not? Thanks

Great thanks and what thickness would you go if stainless?

Hello, Can these types of tanks be used for holding pump out waste? (Obviously in the black version) Or does it need to be some kind of special plastic? As these seem much cheaper. https://www.tanks-direct.co.uk/water-tanks/water-storage-tanks/600-litre-water-tanks/650-litre-water-tank-flat-baffled.html Regards

I will use my current stove fan which keeps the top side cool currently as per my previous message. Here is the spec spec for one I found online: Specification: Size: 40mm x 40mm x 4mm Operates from 0~15.2V DC and 0~6A Operates Temperature: -20'C to 100'C Max power consumption: 72 Watts

Hello, i have a question regarding the thermoelectric generator inside stove fans. I am am in the process of fitting a back boiler to my squirrel and will need to add a circulation pump to the system. Not a problem however I was wondering if I could power this circulation pump (0.5A 12V) using the leads coming from the back of my stove fan and has anybody else done it? I have seen thermo electric generators on eBay cabable of producing 12v 6A so I don't see why not but I have not seen it mentioned before? the main benefits are obviously I am not drawing from the batteries and it will automatically power the circulation pump when the stove is on and turn it off when the stove cools down. Any thoughts ??

Hello what are the options for LPG boilers on boats for heating? As we are coming to winter I would like to have something other than my stove to provide heating

I have that planned thanks for your concern but I am after reccomendations of electric start generators. Thanks

Is there one around?? As I want to permanently place the generator in a housing in the bow rather than carrying it in and out every time. Thanks

Thanks black rose there's always one trying to be smart i did actually check before because I knew someone would of been quick to correct me on here

I have brought a 2nd hand one off eBay for £35 the guy is posting it tomorrow so will report back on the weekend if it's no good I'll still use it for my work and at £35 I can't go wrong really

Great thanks I have brought the dewalt one at 300W I know my generator will definately power it but we will see how powerful it is!

Hello I am after a wet and dry vac I can use to clean the bilge with that is under 1000w as my only mains power source is a Honda eu10i generator. I have looked online but can't seem to find much hence coming on here for a solution. Thanks

Hello, i have been been looking online at these webasto burners that have been removed from bmw's volvos etc. What else is is needed with this unit to install one, I know there is no fuel pump but is there a connection on the unit where I can connect the fuel pump to? As as I have a D5W currently installed everything else is there, flow and returns fuel line exhaust I use a remote relay to start the eberspcher so could I have a similar set up with one of these? here is something similar that I have been looking at: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252965517140 regards

I have had 3D renderings done of my boat before I fitted out by a guy I paid £60 I think. PM me if you want his details

Hi good luck with your project seems interesting

Thanks for the replies, all booked in.

Hello does anybody have any recommendations for a bss examiner in the Milton Keynes area? Thank you

Looks like we have the same boat, here is how I have done mine.

Great would be interested to see how you get on. Also what size boat will you be putting this in?

http://www.thunderstruck-ev.com/electric-sailboat-kits-and-accessories-inboard-motor-ev/ these electric conversion kits kits look quite good and not too expensive. The only thing you need to add is the batteries. I remember asking lynch how much their conversions kits were once and I think they came to about 6k without batteries although they were very helpful on the phone

Hi did you get my pm? I'm in Milton Keynes and have a 35L diesel tank if you are interested
