Pulled the heat exchanger

I was going to give it a good cleaning as part of some needed cooling system maintenance. Researching how best to go about this I started with Mainsail's article on the subject. I quickly decided to take his advice and stop wasting my time. I took it to a local radiator shop along with a spare and the Land Rover radiator. I also need to add a couple 6 volt deep cycle batteries to the house bank. After spending one season with 12 volt refrigeration it's clear that the current house bank of 2, 6 volt batteries, which had been quite adequate, is now overburdened. Deciding which storage space to give up is going to take some study.
