Water heater removal

[krminyl@...]

Robert,

I can't offer you much advice on the air line stuff, bust as far as the
coolant lines are concerned, I just put a pair of vice grips on the hoses before
I removed them from the water heater. This kept the coolant loss to just
what was in the hoses from where the hoses were pinched to where they connected
to the water heater.

Just FYI, I bought a new heater from Seaward Products in Whittier, CA,
direct from the Mfg. It was almost a perfect fit replacement (I think the
original was an Atwood), and I gained an additional gallon capacity in the same
dimension heater.

Good luck...it was my first "major" project on my BB when I bought it over 4
yrs ago, and gave me the confidence to tackle all of the other projects
since.
