Thank you 🙂

Ouch - so sorry to hear 😞how did you find out? white smoke?

@@sorenfleron checking the aftercooler we pulled it out and found that it had deteriorated. Also salt crystals in the bottom of the casing.

@@robertsandall9493 not great - I hope you did not get too much salt water in the engine. Crossing fingers for you. But keep us updated.

OH NO 😞 so sad to hear. so the aftercooler leaked - do you know why? it does not rust, so strange. Did it damage the engine? BR Soren

Hi David You are absolutely right. The point of this video is that it is not needed to drain there... much easier using a water vacuum cleaner and empty through the hoses :-) Wish you a great day. BR Soren

@@sorenfleron Are you sure you're getting all the water out by vacuuming from the top?

@@davidshepherd7750 Hi David. Yes that is also what the video is showing. when dismounting the tube from waterpump and sucking on the out of the intercooler the intercooler is emptied out. I was able to suck it, and then remove it from it's cage and it was all emptied out. Really good thing by removing it completely is to clean out all the stuff that is sucked in from raw water. But yes - it was dry. BR Soren

Hi @user... I would still clean the intercooler, if it is clogged your engine will have a hard time getting enough air. You also have the compressor to help the engine get more air when running cold. Not sure if that answers your question? BR Soren

Hey - thanks for writing - yes would in deed be good, however there is really not much about the supercharger / kompressor, seems to be ONE part, only info is on changing oil in the kompressor which is a VERY good idea to do yearly, and also fairly simple and not expensive...

Please also see here, there are not many parts around the kompressor: marinepartseurope.com/en/dealer/jlmarine/category/marine%20diesel%20engines/product/kad44p/explodedview/54168140?catalog=7738870_MD4B&functiongroup=Inlet%20and%20Exhaust%20System&img=45444.png&header=Compressor%20and%20Belt%20Protection

Hi - is that because there is not enough space? the insert itself should be fairly easy to pull out using a set of pliers.

@@sorenfleron Yes, starboard is ok, but there isn't enough height on the port side

@@gavinmay4047 Bummer 😞 that is really sad, so empty usinca vacuum and then I guess the only way is to unbolt the whole case. when the case is empty from water you can remove it nicely - there is a good video on this (except for draining 🙂): th-cam.com/video/vA_U00Fsgy4/w-d-xo.html

Thank you very much :-) I will do more when I find more relevant stuff to record :-)

Thank you very much :-)
