Ok, she is back together and runs well now. I took the pump off and hosed out the head and block to try and get as much crud out as possible. Then I installed the clear GANO filter. After a short run to Alameda, she was very warm at the top but not enough to burn and cooler down at the bottom-normal. But the most important thing is, I did not lose huge amounts of water. She lost some but i don't know if she is finding her level or it is leaving through a crack in the block. I can smell exhaust gasses when I opened up the cap

.

And the filter is already trapping small particles of crud. So I am happy that it is working and trapping away. Maybe in a few months I can remove it if all of the crud is gone.

Thanks again,

Mike
