Sorry, wasn’t thinking as I was typing. Diesel means no carb, so rainwater ingress would be thought the air cleaner into the intake manifold, and then through intake valves in the cylinder head. Not real likely. Mine was a sort of special case caused by the PO’s extreme frugality when

It is always low. The angle of the engine and location of the cap, it can be a cup pow and you can't see the coolant. Douglas Mountjoy 1988 LF 39 Mexico at large 1984 Sabre 34 Port Orchard, WA On Fri, Oct 27, 2023, 06:35 Bill Coleman via CnC-List wrote: > Is your anti freeze low? > > Bill

Water doesn't have to necessarily back up the exhaust from outside or from condensation.  If, when you're laying the boat up, you don't have sufficient exhaust pressure to blow out the coolant, it only has to back up the elbow a short distance.  The easiest way for this to happen is to use the
