If the clearance is very little, is there any remediation except for changing to a smaller fridge?

The fridge is inside a compartment with little clearance. Any easy way to slide it out and back?

This fridge is a residential one that uses ac 110v power, not a boat fridge

The exhaust bend and condensation coil are not included with my heater. Do you mean both are not needed?

no

"... when the heater is turned off, the hot gas in the pipe cools down, shrinks and sucks in moisture from the outside. the amount of condensation is purely dependent on the length of the exhaust pipe and the moisture content in the air" the manual says this inverted U shape is to prevent water...

I had planned the pipe to come downward gently from the heater to the outlet. but the Espar d4 manual for marine installation specified a 90 degree bend with drain coils, and the exhaust pipe comes up and down forming an inverted U shape, before landing on a through hull that is higher than the...

I spotted water puddle at the bottom inside of the fridge, leaking through door seal onto the floor. Then I followed this video to take the dripping assembly out. instead of gunk plugging the drain hole, I found the water inside the "dripping tray" is frozen, it is the ice that was blocking the...

got it. that's to take the clamp off

i didn't think it through how the back feed could happen when the existing wires are not disconnected. Here is an diagram of the gen. battery and the fuel lift pump. the curved wires are the jumper cables, the arrows are the alligator clips. The existing circuit remains open when the generator...

I only found one bolt near the top end of the steering cylinder, the one in the circle below. does this bolt join the steering cylinder to the tiller arm?

Thanks for the idea. but this work is very low frequency. it's only needed at every filter change on the gen. racor, and is really a one time thing at the mounting of the CDH metering pump. so I'd save the effort of installing a lift pump and consider making a manual jumper tool.

I found 22-14g alligator clip online, but it may be too small for a battery post? I need to make the jumper cable myself, because the electrical port on the CHD metering pump requires a 2-pin harness connector. I need to get such a harness and splice to the cables using some butt connectors

I have updated my post to fill in the context.

is "heavy enough" to say the wire gauge? what specification of the wire does "big enough" refer to?

there are two pumps I have in mind first one is a fuel lift pump on a westerbeke 6.0. The other one is a small metering pump on a CDH. I didn't find the wattage of the first one

yes. i got the wires need to be disconnected first

there are situations where I need to manually jump a pump, either the fuel lift pump on a westerbeke 6.0, or a small metering pump on a CDH. what cable and connectors do you usually use to clip to a house battery or a distribution panel?

@Portage_Bay can this flex duct work as insulation for the hot air hose? the webasto thermoduct insulation has similar caliber/design, but costs ~6 times as much.

I bought a 3" and a 6" to stack up, with the 6" on top. interestingly, the 3" is still soft but the 6" is very hard.

Thanks Its name plate reads model 50 uniflow valve. From the photo, it looks like a plumbing device without electrical wires

Got it. There is a "distributor" box on the wall that connects to the steering cylinder via two rubber hoses. It has three hoses connected on the left side. What is this box?

I was working on the mattress replacement so took the opportunity to open one bed board. This is what are under the bed Which is tiller arm and which is rudder post?

I saw this repair kit yesterday. is this kit what you mentioned? is it also applied using the same Preval sprayer?

@Bmarler is the lagging wrapped on top of the sleeve? or directly around the exhaust pipe without a sleeve? silicone sleeves seem to have an operating temp up to 500F (one example, also this one), but the exhaust temp can get higher than that (500-600F) : see Forced Air Diesel Heater Exhaust...
