Rurring motor in a barrel

[Dead Eye]

1988 150 black max<br /> WHEN RUNNING THE MOTER IN A BARREL OF WATER IS IT NORMAL FOR THE WATER TO TURN BLACK? SHOULD THE WATER STAY PRETTY CLEAr? NOTE I KEEP THE HOSE RUNNING IN THE BARREL THE WHOLE TIME.<br />Thanks , Dead Eye

Dead Eye,<br /><br />The water turns black because the exhaust exits the engine under water.<br /><br />Perfectly normal. Good idea to keep the fresh water going though.

It will appear to smoke more than it should also!

Fill the barrel with beer and dont think it will turn black

Yeah, it makes quite a mess. I was surprised how much oil was in the water when I was running mine in a barrel last year...

Gosh Chum. Seems like a waste of good beer

If you drink a few rum & cokes will the water begin to look clearer?<br /> Thanks, Dead Eye
