1/2 versus Full Fresh Water Cooling Systems
Wednesday, February 15th, 2012Questions: 1) What are the differences between Fresh Water Cooling Systems and Raw Water Cooling Systems 2) What is the Difference Between a Full & Half Closed Cooling System? Response: Half Systems vs. Full Systems:
In all cases prior to installing the system, you will want to flush out your block with tap water to prevent any loose debris from lodging into the heat exchanger once it is installed. Another helpful hint with older products is to create a pocket using a piece of “Panty Hose”. Install this over the inlet of the heat exchanger (connection leading from the thermostat housing) before installing the coolant hose and hose clamp. Run the engine for about 30 minutes with straight tap water. This will act as a filter and collect the debris and scaling form the engine thereby preventing it from lodging in the heat exchanger which reduces it’s overall effectiveness.
