Guest Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 If thats the case Rod! then I think Ken Nevard is the guy Jonny needs to speak to, he's good and he's cheap, the only thing is Jonny will need to take the tank out, which would also be a good opportunity to change that dreadfull pipework, the more I look at it the more supprised I am that jonny hasn't had a major leak yet,, Regards Frank,, Frank less of that talk now wash your mouth out with carbolic I will have to get some photo's taken the first day i am down there & ask Brian if i can use his mac to upload the photo's to the site. i would like a nice setup with plastic piping or some strong stuff with a big enough water tank & a calorifier dont want to spend sill money as i have other things that need doing as well.

Gordon Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Just a thought guys, going back to the original problem, could it be a simple issue of air in the system. Being a savage the only way I know of dealing with that is disconnecting the pipes and either blowing or sucking on them till the water flows.

C.Ricko Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hi Jonny, there is nothing unusual about your calorifier tank, we have loads of them, I think perhaps position is a bit odd and the pipework not up to date as although the tank is kind of insulated the pipes are not. If you want a immersion then either get one fitted or get a new tank but I suggest the tank is moved closer to the engine as the shorter the pipe run the quicker your water will heat up.

Guest Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hi Clive i dont think there would be any other place you could put it unless you moved the front well steps out of the way or mounted it in the engine bay.
