    E38 Exhaust System Upgrade

    I’d been experiencing a little of the white steaming from the exhaust system the last two seasons, no overheating issues as the boat still holds 185f at cruising speed. So I’d been systematically going through the heat exchanger system and checking for blockages etc. Now I was finally onto the...

    Misadventures of a new diesel owner

    Hey, did you know these boats actually sail too? You wouldn’t know it watching me over my first 4 months of ownership, but we were finally able to take Segue (soon to be renamed) out for the day. I had a small scare when I went below to find the new exhaust riser smoking a bit when I was...

    Heater exhaust

    I am about to install my new heater ( a force 10 propane) to the bulkhead between the main cabin and the head of my 35-2. As I look at it I can see the simple and least destructive way to route the exhaust would be to run it out through the hatch instead of punching a hole in the roof. The...

    Exhaust Elbow Needed!

    I'm looking for a replacement exhaust elbow, part #170-2834 that I believe was made by Onan, for my 1988 E32-200 with the Universal M25XP engine. See the attached pictures. Any idea on sources for this part? Also, when I took the system apart I found the water injection port to be nearly...

    Exhaust manifold studs

    I will be removing my exhaust manifold to install studs that are long enough for the new alternator mounting bracket. Any insight on what to expect when I try to remove those studs? How have others done it and are there any pitfalls to avoid? What about the exhaust manifold gaskets? Do they...

    YSB-8 siphon break and exhaust

    I need some help. My YSB-8 runs well except for a small amout of exhaust steam but I am confused as to why I seem to get much more water flow out of the siphon break into the scupper than acutal output of cooling water through the waterlock and out the exhaust. I have checked all the hoses and...

    Exhaust riser inlet

    At the time of purchase my E28 (Universal M12) had the raw water line that leads to the exhaust riser in the vertical position (green hose). Can anyone think of any harm that would be done by rotating the hose fitting 90* so that the water drained away from the riser? Thanks in advance, Frank

    Exhaust design question...

    Hello All, I'm in the process of R-n-R'ing the 5432 in my E38 with a used engine. In the process of removing the engine several other things are receiving attention including the exhaust system. Currently the exhaust leaves the engine from a 2" OD water mix elbow, travels about 10" of hose...

    exhaust for a westerbeke 4-107

    I'm reinstalling an exhaust system for my westerbeke diesel in my E-41. There is a v-drive, so the engine is mounted forwards back. Any diagrams or drawings for this particular project? I looked through some basic diesel mechanic books but I'm wondering if anyone had some specific information.

    E-27 exhaust tubing

    before and after of the exhaust tubing for my E-27. The before (rusted one) has an obvious flaw that the water from the engine goes into the engine during start up because there is no loop in the tubing. I attempted to fix this by constructing a new exhaust. I need your opinion to make sure my...

    E27 exhaust loop

    My 1976 E27 has an Atomic 4 with an upward loop (galvanized) in the exhaust line at the thruhull in the stern. Any Ericson owners out there have the same setup? I spoke with Don Moyer and he didn't recall any boats using the A4 with this. The reason for asking is I have some restriction...

    Increased engine noise due to exhaust riser closing??

    Sorry if this has been asked, I could not find it. My engine noise is louder than in previous years. This only occurs at idle. With an increase in rpms there is little noise. Could it be that the exhaust riser arm is becoming clogged where the water comes in but with increased rpms more water...

    Exhaust sooty when submerged?

    Extending exhaust to reduce diesel soot ?

    We just had our E39-B polished and waxed ... very nice :-) Of course, as soon as we started up the diesel after the "service" we got a black streak running down the hull at the stern. My gut reaction is to try to attach a 1" (or so) extension to the exhaust to keep the sooty drip from...

    M-18 Exhaust Riser

    On the top of my exhaust riser there is a small plug similar to the plug that holds the zinc in the heat exchanger. There is also a larger plug on the port side of the riser at the bottom near the exhaust flange. What are the purpose of these plugs?

    Exhaust elbow riser fitting problem

    I have an E-32 III with a Universal M-25XP engine. The original exhaust elbow riser started showing rust spots on either side of the elbow indicating that it was failing. The metal was rusting out at both spots so I figured it was time to replace the unit. I contacted Torrensen Marine, via...

    No or very little water in the exhaust?

    Hi all Last Sunday we went for a day sail and on the return when we fired up the diesel there was no water coming out with the exhaust, maybe a couple of drops. The anti siphon vent was putting out a good stream of water so I know that there was cooling water going into the heat exchanger...

    Exhaust anti-siphon hose

    Hello, Ours (and most 80s-vintage Ericsons?) have a funky antisiphon hose coming off the exhaust thruhull. It is above the standing water line, but sometimes below the sailing one. Ours is made of a small rubber hose that does not appear to be rated for exhaust or anything, but most...

    Universal 5432/M40 exhaust elbow?

    Looking at the exhaust on my 5432 last weekend it occurred to me that it could be improved. The exhaust exits the riser to a hose that is tapered and clamps to a 90* bronze plumbing fitting then to the waterlift muffler. The 90* fitting is a standard marine plumbing fitting with screw in hose...

    E 38-200 Exhaust Elbow Temp and Aft Cabin
