OIL I N WATER
Moderators: BeaconMarineBob, Moderator, BeaconMarineDon
I wonder if when you fire that engine up cold, with the oil fill cap off, do you see any steam coming out?

OK - just going by what you titled this thread, "OIL I N WATER".kevinz wrote:water in oil. If it was oil in water, I think I should see a slick at the exhaust. No slick.
And you wouldn't see an oil slick if you got oil in your closed system.

O.K. Good news. Kind of. I replaced the manifolds, risers, and U-coolers. Did threee oil changes, took her out on sea trials, did one more oil change, and everythings looks great. Lots of cash, but did it myself so no labaor. No broken bolts, hands, feet, or backs. Don't know what the cause, but will pressure test U-coolers when I get time.
