Checking the in-flow and out-flow hose temperature to the heater by hand might eliminate a couple of possibilities. You can compare the temperature relative to the engine hose coming into the engine thermostat.
There is a possibility that there is a vapor lock in the heater hose - depending on the relative height of the heater to the engine this might come about if there was work done on the system or if there is a lower level of coolant which let air into the HW system. ed -----Original Message----- From: cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Greg Sutherland Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2012 9:57 PM To: CandC Subject: Stus-List Hot water heater We are anchored off of Masons island in Mahone Bay and just finished a nice bbq supper. Have been running the diesel for a good 60 minutes to charge the batteries and electronics. when we turned the tap to clean the dishes the water is lukewarm. It typically takes 10 to 15 and the water will scald you. Any ideas what the issue may be?
