It certainly will, it is the first thing to do, get a workshop manual. Otherwise you face a wall of frustration. The first thing I would do is...
This thread has cured me of ever wanting to move to a damp, cold climate. Seems every cloud has a silver lining.
:cool:
And that jibe about "cognitive distant" friends marks you as objectionable, and not for the first time
I could point out things where you have given poor advice to people, most I have forgotten, the ones I remember I am not such a nark as to...
You can't help yourself, you have a long-standing habit of editing posts in such a way that the context is lost. No wonder I can't be bothered...
You consistently fail to understand simple English, my point was simple, if there is a market for methods of co-opting engine heat to warm boats...
Relax DC, everyone wishes you success with your endeavours, but you seem intent on spreading yourself thin with "projects" that are not easy...
Oh dear, let me tell you this, I have seen and been in many boats, and it is a fact that stuff that does not do the job, quickly gets culled from...

Run an outboard up to operating temperature on a flusher unit, and the water exiting the engine is not that hot, not the same perhaps as running...
You already have enough challenges, DC, at this rate you won't be on the water till 2025.
OK, that gives a fairly good idea, what is she made of ? Is it a scaled-up version of the small boat ? My initial thought was she might slap on...
Quite a step up in size, shall we say about 30 times ? Any pictures or drawings ?
The old neck-top computer's calculations often are the best arbiter of ride quality, however occasionally you will find people who insist their...
"After the engine" is in the exhaust passages, I can't see this being practicable. Some sort of heat exchange might work, but plumbing into the...
I wouldn't be doing it, and no doubt any such contrivance would instantly void any engine warranty, which admittedly is not a factor with this motor.
I wouldn't even consider it, you may create unexpected problems in an old engine that I'd be very happy if it just kept going, especially pushing...
water has to reach the top of the powerhead to flow back out, this idea is fraught in my opinion, in cold conditions and cold water the flow is...
