[C320-list] Zinc

[Elizabeth Schwartz]

Ahoy......On the engine,the heat exchanger is a tube that transfers heat 
from the engine coolant to raw water......probably on the aft side of 
engine.....4 hoses attached....on the aft side of mine is a hex bolt 
that is hollow on the inside to hold a zinc..to save the exchanger from 
corrosion.....Joe....#245
