Reply To: Pyro/boost install on Yanmar 6ly

[Eric]

Corey,
thanks for the fast replies, particulary on a Sunday!
1) – Talk to me about what changes I need to make to make it safer. Its been like this since the previous owner isntalled the engines in 2006. You are concerned with water remaining in the fiberglass tube after engines are shutdown and it could flow back into the engine with a little boat rocking? Is there an extension piece that would extend the mixer higher so the anlge is more acute?

2) Its a home brew job. Monitors 4 batteries (V, A and aH), Fridge, Freezer, compressor, Freon, engine temps, 4 bilges. Displays all info and sends to the cloud so I can do analysis. I’m a complete nerd, that’s why I am trying to figure out the easiest way to get boost and pyro monitoring on N2k. Looking at https://www.summitracing.com/parts/vdo-360043/overview/ and a pyro sensor (does it matter how ‘deep’ it protrudes into the exhaust manifold bracket #16?)

3) I’ll install Pyro before the turbo if that makes most sense. I’ll see how easy it is to remove the plug and then tap a 1/8 in it.

Thanks again,
Eric
