COOLANT RECOVERY TANK
A coolant recovery tank kit is supplied with each
WESTERBEKE engine/generator. The purpose of this
recovery tank is to allow for engine coolant expansion and
contraction during engine operation, without the loss of
coolant and without introducing air into the cooling system.
This coolant recovery tank should be installed at or above
engine manifold level, in a location where it can be easily
monitored. A wire mounting bracket is supplied with each
kit, along with a 30 in (76 cm) length of clear plastic hose
and clamps, to connect the hose between the engine’s
manifold fitting and the hose spud on the base of the
recovery tank.
COOLANT
WESTERBEKE recommends a mixture of 50% antifreeze
(good quality and compatible with aluminum components)
and 50% distilled water.
