Re: Newbe here Help needed with volvo penta AQ130D 280 outdrive
Hey pirate thanks again, I pulled the line coming from the oil cooler, plenty of water coming out of the oil cooler. Removed the two copper tubes, one on the exhaust manifold and the one running from the thermostat housing. Ran the motor for a few seconds, a little water coming from the back top port on the exhaust manifold, less coming from the middle two holes and none coming from the front hole close to the thermostat housing. There is water coming out the exhaust elbow, and my question is should there be any water coming from the exhaust elbow with the tube, tubes, disconnected from the thermostat housing and the exhaust elbow? Not sure what to try next. I do believe that the previous owner did have it in salt water some, not sure how mucy.
