Flushing the FW side

[Strait Shooter]

I saw one a year and a half ago for $400. I shoulda grabbed it.

I got the heat exchanger off today, it's all aluminum. The crud that was in it was incredible. Lots of build up of hard deposits as well as slimy clear jelly bean shaped gunk........I'll drop it off tomorrow at the radiator shop.

The engine needs a thorough cleaning now........and some new hoses.......and paint........and and

For a reference point...

Ace Radiator in San Diego charged me $165 to boil, repair or resolder any little things, place a new zinc, and repaint. This was for a Universal M25XPB HX. Same charge as well as a slightly larger HX that was used on my old Volvo Md2B.

Sounds like what was under my mast step when I pulled it last year.
