Bruce,
How long has it been since you last cleaned the exchanger, checked the tube
stack and replaced the coolant?
It should be done at least once every five years, including replacing the
o-rings.
Barnacle Buster is a good product, especially down here, but not to be used
instead of normal maintenance.
All the best,
Edd

Hello all,
I am in the Tampa area and have a Yanmar 3JH2E in our C&C. I'm not having any
problems at the moment, but given the warm seawater here that tends to grow
barnacles and such, would you recommend proactively flushing the heat
exchanger? I am considering using Barnacle Buster.
Thanks for the insights,
