I am going to be replacing the Manifold on my 165 Mercruiser IL6 this spring. When I installed the FWC system last spring, I noticed some debris in the manifold when I removed the rear end cap of the manifold. I cleaned it the best I could but I suspect that the heat exchanger could be dirty. It is an old block that I rebuilt. I had the block boiled out at the time of the rebuild but maybe it wasn't totally clean?<br /><br />What is the best method of cleaning the heat exchanger and determining if it is partially clogged?
