- Anyone know how "sensitive" the raw water circuit on a diesel can be to flow restriction, i.e., hose diameter, bends....
- Sorry, not "circuit", I mean "system"
- Cumulative effects....
- Perhaps the pump is marginal...
- Advice I got today from Volvo Penta suggested the possiblity of marginal R/W pump performance

- Those pumps are very sensitive to the size of the housing
- By chance a Volvo shop yesterday referred me to a specialty marine pump shop in town --they said the same thing
- Don't spend too much evaluating the raw water pump, as a new one is only $250
- Hi all--here are the results of my two "bucket tests" yesterday to check raw water flow from the engine: seems low
- Volvo Penta just called and gave me these Volvo 2030 29HP engine specs for raw water flow
- Raw water cooling
- Good idea...once I get my pump tested, and if flow is to spec, then that would point to an air leak somewhere, making

- Another piece to this puzzle, that confuses it even more, is that Jabsco pumps says that flow rate for an engine like
- It would be related to heat exchanger size Jud.
- Probably, Tom --but you'd think it would scale down proportionally
- No need to measure in 2 places!
- I don't think this is a valid assumption.
- Another Volvo shop told me today there is a cam in the pump that can definitely wear down, reducing pump output...
- If you really think it is the raw water pump, then a buy a new one.

- Jud, my vented loop is probably 12-14 ft round trip.
- Cool, thanks for the info, Paul...useful to know. Any idea of hose inside diameter? I've got 1/2", same as piping on
