Shire 50: A single hose connects the tank to the vertical hosetail fitted into the port side of the twin thermostat housing. Shire 38, 40 and 45: Two hoses are used on these engines. One is fitted between the smaller internal diameter (3mm) outlet (on the left hand side of the tank) and the connection on the port side of the top of the thermostat housing (on 45 the side of the twin thermostat housing).
Connections on Engine Connections on Header Tank Shire 38 Shire 40 Shire 45 Shire 50 Figure 15: Header Tank Connections 7. Calorifier The temperature of coolant flowing to the calorifier from the engine can be between 85 and 90°C.

7. Diesel Fuel Additive The use of diesel fuel additive is strongly recommended on Shire engines. The quality of the fuel available when cruising is often unknown. Also the fuel may have been in storage for long periods of time. The use of additives will ensure that your engine fuel injection system is in top condition which should result in many years of smooth reliable operation, without the cost and inconvenience of expensive breakdowns due to poor quality fuel.
SECTION 7 – Service Procedure NOTICE: REFER TO THE YANMAR MANUAL PRIOR TO CARRYING OUT ANY SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE WORK.
