Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild
Boo,
I assure you that I had nothing to do with it! We had charcoal filters on the inboard vents for the sanitary tanks, so that anytime we had to blow the schitt tanks when we were submerged, we could count on those charcoal filters to 'purify' the air when it was bled off into the boat.. Number 2 sanitary tank held over 600 gallons of, . . well I'm sure you can imagine what it held, . . being as you are full of it!! . . LOL!! As I recall the charcoal filter was about 12" in diameter and maybe 16" long... More than adequate to remove any 'lingering' odors', . . right??? . . . Wrong! And to make matters worse, that vent was right in the After Battery where we had our meals! We used to stand up on the bench seat below that filter when it was being vented inboard, and take deep breaths while beating on our chests... Ahhh there is no smell like the inside of a vintage diesel submarine... They didn't call them Pig Boats for nothing!
