Where is the anode with a BF2803 engine ?
Permalink  

Hi guys,

All is in the title : I can't find the anode on my engine... I guess it is something easy to find, but until now...

Thanks in advance for your help.

Fred

Hello,

I have attached two photos showing the location of the zinc anode in the heat exchanger end cap. This location covers all the BF2803 engines after model year 1998.

Prior to that the zinc anode was in the end cap at the front of the manifold.

RE: Where is the anode with a BF2803 engine ? Tip on changing
Permalink  

At first sight, you have to drain the seawater side of cooling to change the anode.

We found it easier to close the input sea****, and pump sal****er from the galley or head pump to create a vacuum in the system.  This avoids mess in the boat.

Of course, this trick works only if you piping is appropriate.
