Time to rebuild or replace our Groco model k heads . Had vacuflush on previous boat and was always chasing leaks. Looking for low water consumption to extend time between pump outs? Any thoughts?
Model Ks develop a major problem after about 20 years of use: They begin to recirculate black water when the piston bore wears beyond spec and the rings allow pressure to blow by. Furthermore the piston is double action pumping black water on the up stroke and raw water to the bowl on the down stroke.
