Thanks Bob. I hope you never need to do this either. It's a great learning experience, but not necessarily real fun. By bringing it out the front, I can isolate the engine coolant from the AH if needed so as to not have to replace 16 gallons of antifreeze again. I originally intended to isolate the hot water supply also, but their wasn't enough room for the valves, so I removed them.

I hearby declare that this project is completed. I test ran the diesel side of the AH. Turned on the switch...................nothing. No light, no humming, oh boy. Did some checking. A 10 amp fuse had popped on the AH panel. (I only confess to this so that if someone else has this issue, it gives them a place to start looking.) Replaced and tried again. Sucked the fuel into the new filter and timed out. Nothing.  Tried again, fired right up. It didn't smoke spit or sputter. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Then for the finally, I attached the new chrome tip to the new exhaust pipe.
