  1. Thanks all. I guess it's been there a long time so prob not doing any harm although outflow from skin tank is right near the bottom. I haven't any access to mains electricity at present or a good enough inverter for a pressure wash. Might save that for next time coolant changed and clear out what I can this time without trying to get it all out.
  2. Like the idea of creating a stronger jet with copper pipe as there is a filler cap on the skin tank. The stuff just didn't shift with the power of a hose pipe. Flipping the boat upside down might be a bit extreme Jen, although it would make it easy to black it.
  3. Ok, will get hold of some and follow the instructions. Thanks for your help.
  4. Thanks, no didn't know what caused it but don't think coolant changed in a long time. Would you pour a litre of the cleaner on top of the sludge, let it soak a while then flush it all out?
  5. Hi, we have drained the skin tank of our recently purchased 40 year narrowboat in order to change the coolant and have found there is an approx 3cm layer of black sludge at the bottom of the tank which a hose pipe does not shift. Does anyone have any suggestion for the best way of cleaning this out? Cheers
