Hello, I recently posted a question regarding one of my motors not being able to stay running. Thanks to all who responded. The suggestions led me to the issue. I'm refitting a 1981 Silverton 31c with 318s and V drives. Both of the motors have now started and run long enough to reach operating temperature. I now have both heat exchangers removed for inspection/cleaning. I've rodded them out, and have removed some debris by flushing (not much). Since this is the first time I've had them off, I suppose I should have them checked for leakage, but they look pretty good (internally). One exchanger does have 2 tubes blocked by something that appears white as best as I can tell. I'm unwilling to try to press too hard with the rod in case these have been blocked intentionally. Also, in researching this, These can have anodes inside the seawater side. Do these just get dropped into the seawater side of the exchanger? Also, the vessel had dual stations, but once rebuilt will only have one (no more flybridge). I've read that I now need a single station temp sender due to different resistance drops with temp. Does that also apply to the oil pressure sender? I'm also curious about the location of the temp sender. There is a sender that penetrates the water pump, so I figure that's it, but there is also another device that looks like a sender that is right behind it, but in a horizontal position, it seems to penetrate the coolant tank, but I cant really tell. I would also like to flush the coolant passages in the engine, but I would think the thermostat might block that. I cannot seem to locate the thermostat housing, nothing jumps out at me as a typical flanged housing that holds a thermostat. Is it under the coolant tank? Also, on the rear of the engine, there is an oil pressure switch, and an oil pressure sender on the same manifold that's fed by a braided line. There is also another sender on this manifold that has 2 wires going to it. In looking at the wiring diagram under the engine covers, the vessel may have had the optional alarm systems. but I don't see anything on the instrument panel that would seem like indicators for alarms. Anyway, forgive my lack of familiarity with this engine, its really the first time I've dug into it in any detail.
