Before: I bought some Barnacle Buster concentrate and made my own circulating pump. Rather easy to do, I used a 5 gallon bucket, a 3,700 gal per hour bilge pump and hooked it up to the hose coming off of the raw water pump, discharge side, and used the hose that is hooked to the exhaust elbow at the turbo. I hooked it all up, turned off the water to the stern tube and tested the system with fresh water for a few minutes and then added the Banracle Buster and circulated it for 2 hours, unbelievable the amount of stuff that came out of the system. After removing the circulating system I ran the engine to flush it out.
After! John reports that after opening the heat exchanger it looked like it had just come from the factory.
