  1. I've just prepared my tank by sanding old bitumen as was flaky,just ordered vactan and a tin of watertank black as my neighbour has recommended I re black to be safe than sorry.
  2. Have you only used vactan then,I've seen other comments that people have only used vactan so must be OK.
  3. Could I paint tank black on top of vactan?
  4. I'm just about to clean out my water tank and re paint,I had tank blacking on before,but this time I'm going to use vactan for the first time, and not but any tank black on,I'm just going wire brush any flaky paint from before and coat it in vactan.
  5. Thanks,that looks a easier option as I think black jack was used before,vactan is something I have looked into before but wanted to see if anyone else has used it on its own,and you've no problems as of yet so might try it out.
  6. Have you used bitumen paint before on your tank and what make was it please.
  7. What is the best paint to use when painting the inside of the water tank.
  8. Thanks for the advise,and I'm sorry for confusion.
  9. I'm not doing the work I've got this guy who says I need a bigger amp alternator I've no idea about electrics,I don't want to throw lots of money at this as I might be wasting my time,I've had the boat rewired,I've only got lights and pumps running off 2 leisure batteries and 1 engine starter battery running from a 70amp alternator I'm sure this would be ok,but this guy seams to think I need more power.
  10. Ive a single 70amp alternator charging 3 battery's I've check charge and very low,is it possible to change to a 110amp alternator.
  11. How do I fill up the skin tank,as I only can fill up the expansion tank.
  12. I've had the boat 1 year,just done fit out,moved to bosworth Marina and we over heated on route.
  13. Next check is water pump,as been told head gasket was ok,new cap and thermostat fitted now,I'll turn engine on and see what happens now
  14. I've just took thermostat housing off and there wasn't a thermostat to be seen,so that's the problem solved hopefully.
  15. Matty,how do I check for air locks,it over heats ,I fill expansion tank up and after a few minutes water has all gone and engine over heats and stops
