You're a good man, John. I only wish I had some skills that would help, sadly that is not the case. I hope others who do have the skills step forward to ensure this lovely old boat gets a new lease on life. Thank for sahring.

Will you please stop the " huge " " massive" nonsense. It's just a 6cyl truck engine. If my memory serves me right it's actually a Leyland 680.

Bit of advice if you'd like to hear it:
------- It's a good idea to have your batteries isolated from the metal framing that they're sitting on.
For two reasons:
1. The battery charge can slowly be drained via external contact with the hull ground, &
2. If you have a slow grounding drain on the charge, it can lead to further corrosion across the hull structure.

This is easily fixed by sitting the batteries in a small wooden tray/open-topped box.
And even better if you line the tray/box with rubber.

If you have a securing metal strap, line the under-side of that with rubber also.

I would have warmed the engine before changing the oil. You had it running before and a warm engine oil will come out easier. This new oil may need changing after flushing the system and new replacements oil put in after an hour of flush running.

In Australia we have a product called Fuel Doctor. It's essential for any diesel system. You may find a similar product

Look at the injectors before the valves. Good Injectors are a big part of a smooth running diesel engine. Cheers
