Nope, they still do. A QE with a depressed demand does nothing for inflation, that's chapter 2 of the book.
Told you so, as you might remember...! :)
I wouldn't be so sure, because it's rather likely that at the same time a depressed demand will have an opposite - possibly stronger - effect....
Oscarvan, I'm not sure to understand your point. I mean, I'm also aware of engines killed upon startup, after sea water filled some cylinders...
That's essentially down to considering also very long passages as part of the fun, not as a job to accomplish. Personally, I see them much more as...
Urgh, that sounds a VERY poor tank capacity, for a 62 footer... :confused:
Absolutely. Expensive they are in absolute terms of course, but if badly designed, their overall cost can be a multiple, potentially stretching...
Yup, all agreed. I didn't see your post 'cause I was writing mine. I was also wondering if that boat is on V-drives, because she does appear to...
Coming to think of it, I understand the doubts on this matter, because marine exhausts are tricky, and rarely well understood also among...
Nope. A bit counterintuitive maybe, but it's actually the other way round. Raw water is re-injected only when the engine is running, and while its...
Yup, I believe that's negligible, for two reasons. First, even if dry exhaust pipes can indeed get much hotter than the engines, in terms of...
Neither do I, and I did say exactly the same, in fact. That doesn't make then necessary, anyway. Aside from my own boats, I can think of several...
Nothing wrong in a long dry section per se, but necessary, it definitely isn't. In my V8 MAN installation (as well as many others that I've seen)...
I'm sorry to say that I don't like what was done in more ways than one. 1) that type of insulation on the (very long!) dry section makes visual...
The OP said in post #5 that the photo shows his "previous exhaust", and that he now has a completely new one with no mixers. So, while I would...
I tend to agree with the previous suggestions to ship the thing. Not that a N62 can't handle the passage, but are you sure you want to? As I once...
Well, mine was of course a generalization, and as such always subject to exceptions. But if there's one thing I can confirm you, is that by not...
I think it does. Not showing a lot of appreciation for our efforts seems to be a common trait of most wives, but next time try to tell her that...
If your previous exhaust had those mixer elbows, you obviously had a wet exhaust - more than likely with a main u/w outlet, plus bypass. And since...
Wow, what a cute little boat! Also her drawing on your homepage is lovely, btw. Next time I'll be around FL I'll get in touch for a sunset cruise,...
