Re: Stus-List Mystery Coolant

Thanks very much. Yes it's a fresh water-cooled A4. Joseph, I am going to check the sump near the mast step too, but based on where it's pooling I think it's coming from the bilge just forward of the motor under the cabin sole - the hardest spot to reach. John, if that turns out not to be

You could also try arranging some white paper towels on a cookie sheet or bits of plywood under the engine. Pumps are a particular candidate for suspicion in my opinion, especially when temperature changes appear to be a factor. Steve Thomas C Merritt Island, FL Ryan Doyle via CnC-List

Yeah, but they're not the ones crawling around an engine looking for leaks. It's good that they have the info though, so they can direct the guy on what needs to be done. Cheers, Russ Sweet, 35 mk-1 Neanderthal skipper At 08:40 AM 30/01/2016, you wrote: Mike — there

Hey everyone, Thank you for the responses last week about my tiller - which I went out to observe/fix today and then got distracted by another issue - c'est la vie. Sometimes after heavy precipitation I find engine coolant in my bilge. This ONLY happens after heavy precip - like last week here

Hah! Thanks for the reply. But I have the original gas motor, so no diesel on board. It's definitely engine coolant - has the unmistakable smell. On Fri, Jan 29, 2016 at 6:20 PM, Josh Muckley via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > This might be out on a limb but on the topic of "How

I have a similar problem.every year / winter I loose engine coolant into the 'after bilge'.   All hoses replaced.  Still happens.  Haven't found the source of the leak yet.Any recommendations for coolant dyes?  Probably less than a quart, but never a drop during the sailing season.

Re: Stus-List Mystery Coolant

My A4 is fresh water cooled . If you have Anti Freeze in your motor . I am guessing that it is a closed system . You can pressure test your engine. There should be a heat exchanger on the engine . There is a sump under your mast step on the 30 - 1 also . The antifreeze may be coming from there

Re: Stus-List Mystery Coolant

Replying to my own thread again here.. I've read a few times online that people sometimes add antifreeze to a wet bilge during the winter. Now I'm wondering if there is some residual antifreeze left in the aft portion of my bilge from the previous owner (I bought the boat in Oct), and it's being

Re: Stus-List Mystery Coolant

Joe and Joel - thank you guys. Apologies, I was on "digest mode", so I didn't see your responses until now. I know it's engine coolant because as Joe said - "nothing else on the boat looks like it". Joel, I have a feeling you're right about the source. I think there was coolant in the aft part
