[C38] Heat Exchanger

[Michael de lisle]

I just removed a gummed up heat exchanger from hull #240 (1983 C38) and
found a strange and confusing jumble of pipes, hoses and other things going
from the engine to the HX to the water heater and back to the HX that are
definitely not stock configuration on this boat. Does anyone have a picture
of their HX set up? I have an idea of how this is supposed to go back
together but a visual would be helpful. My plan is to soak the unit in
muriatic acid over night to clean all the gunk out and then reinstall. The
HX seams to be doing fine other than being gummed up so I am going to forgo
the pressure test this go around. I would really like to see how the hoses
are laid out as well as the support bracket. My bracket was modified at
some point and they did a very shoddy job. Thanks.
