At 2000 hour service heat exchanger badly corroded. Radiator shop supporting large diesel shop could not get core out. Have owned boat for 2 years. Zincs in heat exchanger have shown little wear during that time. Corrosion and little zinc wear seem inconsistent. Thanks to previous advice from Seaboard, I learned the QSB 6.7 after cooler had plastic caps. (Discovered when unable to remove zincs.) When changing out plastic after cooler caps and seeing zincs for first time-discovered little wear on after cooler zincs. Probably not working. Is this the same for heat exchanger?
Are heat exchanger zincs functioning if in plastic caps. Are there non-plastic replacements? As it stands now we are looking at a new heat exchanger (at 2000 hrs?!) from Cummins. Very spendy and unwarranted if this is a design issue. Would welcome any advice?
